They were designed to run hot and did for years, but with how many service calls? I cant say how many of those calls were due to heat related issues but I am an electronic tech and can say heat is the main enemy of electronics. We install computer fans in many cabinets where multiple components share a space. Of course you'll have more dust drawn in as the side effect of more air, but if there isn't a lot of smoking around I think the dust effect will be offset. I'd put a fan in there if it was mine and I were using it as a daily driver. A lot of modern electronics such as computers and receivers have fans.
