Illuminati (1st Degree)

After several hours of running, the sound is still excellent, but that right tranny still gets way hotter than the left, uncomfortably hot. Maybe it's normal and I'm to much of a worry wort. While I was working on it earlier, I checked carefully the resistance of the right channel tranny vs the left one. They are identical, so no short. Wasn't able to find any more bad resistors. I put my hand on it for about 15 seconds then had to pull off as it was starting to hurt. I can leave my hand on the left on as long as I like.

Does this sound like normal extra heating from the rectifier?
