I am installing cooling fans for my audio cabinet this weekend and welcome any suggestions on my planned installation.
My audio equipment is housed in built-in cabinets. Currently there is no ventilation so I leave the door open. There is also a shelf 1/2 way up. The plan is to install 4 supply fans in one side and two exhaust fans on the other. I am also adding two vent holes at the top, and a few opening in the shelf. I am using six 3.5" computer fans that I am powering with transformer plug with a 4 pin connector. All the fans will be daisy chained. I intend to use the switched output so the fans come on when the equipment is turned on. The max current for the 6 fans is significantly lower than the current available at the switched outlet. Total cost for this set up is approximately $80.
Any thoughts?
