Reliability of Dutch & Dutch 8C speakers

Should have mentioned: the speaker was repaired promptly under warranty. 

I’m not too concerned what parts are used as long as they sound good and are reliable. They do sound good. I have had a failed amplifier unit though. 

I have never heard the fans. If you listen to the speakers muted you may hear the fans. Don’t know. I usually play music through them. The flashing LEDs inside the base of the speaker and network ports are a little irritating though. I imagine they are part of the computer inside. Would be nice to be able to extinguish them when listening in the dark.

I also listen to music that has quiet passages and I’ve never heard the fans. I have just been listening to loud rock for an hour or so in a warm room, muted the speakers and listened for the fans directly under the speakers. What I heard was silence. Are my fans faulty? Should I return the speakers and demand that the fans be audible?
