Axe 2 Racking...

Looking for opinions on this....

I have my Axe 2 mounted in a 6 space. I use 4 of the spaces (Axe 2, Power Conditioner, Wireless)
I have all of my cables hard wired and they get stored in the extra 2 spaces (XLR's to FOH and my FRFR, Midi, AC Power for FRFR, etc).
The upside is that I can open the front cover and pull my cable runs out....quick and easy.
The question I keep asking myself is.....do I 'need' to take the back cover off during a gig...for cooling?
The Axe has not fans that require airflow out of the unit....so I don't 'think' it matters if the back cover comes off.
I've noticed a lot of other folks have put their Axe in a 2 space, and covered the back of the unit with a patch bay....so I'm thinking, my option at least allows air to move in/out in the bottom two empty spaces....just no front to back air flow (like you would need for a power amp).
Curious to get people's opinions.....
 
I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe on a hot day outside.
