I recently added a cooling fan to my pre-amp from active Thermal Management and it uses a wall wart. I plugged it directly into the wall which powers my system, but since the rest of my system is plugged into AC conditioners, it doesn't seem to adding any unwanted "noise" that I can hear.
Amp fan cooling without dc current in the 110 line
So I just finished renovating an old TV console, modifying it by removing the TV and adding shelves to hold my gear within it. While it has vents on the sides, bottom and back, I’m sure my amp will get super hot inside. So I’d like to put a little fan in the cabinet to cool it off. But I’ve always heard those little computer fans put a lot of dirty DC current in the AC lines, resulting in noise in the amplifiers presentation.
So question is, how to avoid that.

The fan should be put on a top of the Amplifier where is the hottest to suck the hot air out. Check this out. Many different options. http://www.ebay.com/itm/AV-Cabinet-Home-Theater-Cooling-fans-w-digital-thermostat-multi-speed-contro... |
