[QUOTE="only126db, post: 4521883, member: 586915"] See the big silver wheel part, I believe it works just like what they call a squirel cage fan, the wheel will go towards the amp and will look like its flush mounted from the otside of your box. Also if you notice there are no dB or cfm ratings for that fan, with squirel cage fans they use a "case" with a certain size opening to move air, so if your box where your amps go is not enclosed (excluding a small air inlet) that fan will probably do nothing....I believe thats why there is no cfm rating since you can change it due to enclosures intake opening size... Check this google search and notice the majority of these have some sort of case that encloses the wheel and a similar sized intake as the output...
