There are Noctua fans in that diameter that are virtually silent.

There is so much empty space in a H9000 that it provides excellent airflow.

If you have a pro rack with active cooling it is more than enough.

Compared to an UAD Apollo or TubeOpto preamp it runs totally cool.

But the sound of the stock fans is comparable to a standard desktop PC…

Its not something you want on the table in front of you

 

Having just spent a small fortune on this unit, I’m not keen to void my warranty.

Would prefer a fan control in firmware, but if I were to for example modify my unit, what would I need to do?

Is the Noctua a plug and play kinda connection to the motherboard?

The fan is a bit of a downer for an otherwise lovely device!
