[j-nsp] Mounting MX80 at an angle

[Jerry Jones]

I would be careful the hot air exiting the rear is not sucked back in the front, if the front is higher. Checkout link for airflow description.

I don't mean angled side-side, I mean angles front-back. So the back end would be lower than the front end. After mounting, if you stood in front of the MX, the front plate would be pointing towards the ceiling a bit instead of horizontally.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by mounting at an angle.  Do you have any pictures/examples?
