Fans for a false floor

[flakko 5,000+ posts]

hey im looking for some 12v cooling fans for a false flooor to cool my amps off. Can anyone point me in the right direction for these? (bang for the buck is best)

and when wiring them, how do i do it? if theres a + and - wire, do i hook them both up in the remote terminal of the amp? or just one? im planning on doing 3 fans.

Thanks in advance! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

red=positive black=ground. Is it true that amps will add noise to a system? I was told that by a shop and was wondering who is running them without noise. I pulled mine because they said that was the ground loop bu t that wasnt it anyways.

get some tornados or other high CFM fans a 30cfm fan wont do you a bit of good. look for 80cfm fans or higher.

noise shouldn't be present if its installed properly...

I have a Vantec Tornado. 80mm, 84 CFM. You can have it for $12 shipped. Get like 3 other ones and you will be set.

i just got 2 from PE, like 35 cfm each. Just enough to get some airflow in the amp rack.

2 bucks each.
