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?

Thanks,

I have a high ceiling, 11.5.' It is only a different circuit than my system. It also has three speeds. On low speed I have noticed no impact but above that I do hear problems.

I can have the ac on in my room as it is about 50' away.

Mapman, I don't want to discuss fuse direction either. Just don't berate others who do. Just stop visiting those threads. You have no chance of convincing others,
