Thank you for adding fan speed control in the latest firmware!!! this is huge. I feel like I was often not turning it on just because of the chassis noise, especially since moving to a new Mac Pro which makes my control room incredibly quiet now.
I too have a dead quiet Mac Pro and room in general.. how noticeable is the H9k noise now with the new firmware?
I would say barely noticeable at all and I am sensitive to these things. major improvement. I have moved it to just to the left of me on top of a desk… and if I focus on it, I can just barely make out a sound. I think if I moved it to a rack under the desk I wouldn’t hear it at all but I don’t think that’s necessary. It did use to be under the desk and I could still hear the fan pretty considerably. When I put my ears to both, I would say the sound of the H9K is comparable now to the very quiet noise of the Mac Pro, perhaps the frequency of the H9K is a tad higher.
