I am amazed and astounded by this thread. I have a large , 3 story house, The third story is my recital hall, if you like. When I have the fan on, any speed, it screws with the music in a big way. Sound is a wave of compression and decompression, and and factor that changes that will change the music. I cannot run the fan and hear the music accurately . This is an observation, supported by science. What is this discussion about?
Does the ceiling fan affect the sound?
Hi everyone,
The ceiling fans generate a large wind in the center of my listening room....Duh.
The tweeter's tiny movements are minuscule especially when compared to the giant fan blade motion.
I think this is affecting the quality of sound. To me, this seems similar to trying to watch the ripples from a pebble through a boat wake. The ripples get lost in the larger waves.
Of course I can turn on the A/C, but that has a whole other set of noise issues.
What do you think? Do you hear a difference when the ceiling fan is on?
