Normal for amp to get hot. If they don't get hot, they are usually Class D.

hey CyntrixTech, I am getting new speaker, considering Swan M200 MkIII now.
1)Should i get this speaker , for a small room but not living room ? Purpose is to serve as my desktop speakerĀ
2)have you heard A5 ? would you mind telling me how come they compete to each other for reference ?
3) please pm me the priceĀ

These are the SRP for M200 + Accessories / Stand
M200MK ii - RM 729
M200MK iii - RM 1299
M200/M100 4M Cable - RM 99
ST2 Stand - RM 229
ST3 Stand - RM 399
For nearfield use, M200MK ii is good enough since you'd place it close to the wall, the bass would be sufficient. For a larger room, you want to go with M200MK iii. You can also consider 1010IV for nearfield but the highs are quite bright.
If you are used to the multimedia speaker boom boom boom, stick to M50W, it's the warmest and most musical of the bunch, might take some time getting used to.

Is heavy arm the only place to get the HiVi? Gosh I've been frequenting KL but still haven't got myself a pair of swan .... T.T
For the mean time, yes. No time to look for other dealers.
Audio Engine is too over hyped by the i-people. If you want that kind of speaker, look at the M100 MKII Bluetooth.
