Do Crossover/Filter Components Get Hot During Operation?

Trying to decide where to mount the filter components inside my DR250's, and it would be helpful to know whether the components get hot during operation and need to be kept from touching materials like mattress foam or pillow stuffing.

Thanks.

Not very, but prudence dictates to never put electronic components in direct contact with insulation materials.

Another reason I was curious about the heat issue was because I was wondering if they would heat up enough to soften hot melt glue if I used that to secure the components to a wood surface. I was guessing that would not be an issue as I seem to recall that this is what others have done, but I wanted to make sure.
