Thought so.
I did once think about reversing the fan, blowing air into the amplifier,
but there is too much risk of the impeller being fouled by a blow to the
casing around the vents. Surely this would mean more internal turbulence,
thus better cooling?
It must have been designed this way round for a reason, though, (?) so I
gave up on that idea.

The main disadvantage that way round is all internal stuff gets heated up to
some intermediary temperature, between ambient and heatsink temp
