[QUOTE="fredeb, post: 956653, member: 13623"] A 120 or 140mm computer fan running at 6-7VDC instead of the usual 12VDC will run dead quiet . You could even install 2 of them on the back panel , one mounted higher , that extracts warm air ; and one mounted lower to suck cool air into the cabinet . Hot air rises , so if extracting - mounted high , if blowing in - mounted low . If only using one fan ; when extracting - mount fan high and drill holes with a 25 or 32mm spade bit beneath the amp and/or low on the back panel , negative pressure created by extracting fan will suck cool air in . Last method - no fan , holes beneath the amp ( not where the feet rest ;D ) , and holes along the top of the back panel , in this scenario convection will get the air moving . [/QUOTE]
