My Blaupunkt Casablanca... back in business, just a Question..

Hello folks,
If any of you stereo enthusiasts who read my old post about my stereo not working, I never found out what was wrong with it but I got a totally new one under warranty.. not bad! When i sent it back I didnt expect a whole new one so I just sent the main unit and the face, so i have a dual set of chassis, wiring harnesses, face case, etc. That will be nice if I go to sell it, having all the wiring harnesses still in the original packaging.
Anyhow, the old unit and this one are both prone to running very very hot. When i take the face off, the back of the face and the front of the unit are pretty hot to the touch. I assume this is normal for a high-powered unit, since the amp is in there right? It runs about 25 watts RMS. Also, it's in the lower din slot, which is in front of the Heater core right? Would that make it hotter? I am just afraid that the heat was what did it in last time, dont want it to happen again.
On blaupunkt's site, it says that if it runs hot, check the OHM's but it looks like the speakers i'm using are in spec. I'm just running a pair of Blaupunkt 6x9"s in the back, and Kenwood 5.25"'s on the doors. Any thoughts? This head unit is great though..
