Hi,
I have my tv on a built-in shelf with an open shelf underneath it like below
(well as I can draw it with line art).

The area where the receiver is at is open on the front.
The problem is that when I ordered it, I was thinking that the area where
the receiver is to go had enough room. The measurement that I was thinking
about was to the top of the shelf that the tv is sitting on and not to the
bottom of the shelf.
What I have ended up with is that the shelf above the receiver is only ½
above the top of the receiver.
I do not think that ½ is really a sufficient clearance amount to allow
proper cooling. One thing that I thought about doing was to place a small
a/c fan
Something like:

Behind the receiver blowing toward the front and upwards (maybe 45 degrees
or so) of the receiver so that it moves the air above the receiver away.
What do you all think about that solution? If it matters, the receiver is
an Onkyo TX-NR609.
Thanks,
Bobby
