Air conditioning for audiophiles.


I live in a small city apartment which gets pretty hot in the summer. My window air conditioner is fairly noisy(it's supposed to be one of the quieter frigidaire models.)

However I cannot in any way shape or form enjoy the subtleties of my music or stereo soundtracks of movies. I might as well be a kid again listening to Cousin Brucie on a transiter radio. People have suggested the Vornado fan which helps if it's not too hot but as you know it can get to a point where a fan just blows hot air around.

ChillWell is a small portable air conditioner which is supposedly very quiet and cools your personal space which is all I need when I'm listening seated in one place.

It is doing a lot of heavy promotion with a cheap price. But whenever I try to look up reviews they all look like PR blurbs.

Anybody have any experience with this item?

Thanks.

If you have a single or double hung window, one of these might work for you.

There's a lot of videos online on DIY that I think even I could do. The problem is, I have sideways sliding windows so I'm stuck with a wall unit that's noisy. Some of the videos show just how much more quiet this type A/C is with measurements to back it up. Having the noisy part completely outside makes a big difference.

All the best,
