one push, one pull

to circulate the air silly goose //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

yea if you do one push thru the amp one way and do the other pushing in thru the other, it will eventualy allow a massive amount of dust to build up which will cause more heat than without the fans //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

Push-Pull ftw... makes a nice crossflow over the amps. When I do my rack I'm probably going to have 2 80's on each end for maximum airflow.

Is it going to be sealed? If any air could be pulled in anywhere besides where the fans are, set them both as exhaust fans. This helps avoid hot spots because of a more uniform flow.

Unless of course, a fan will be blowing directly towards where you need it most.

This is what i want, the rack will be sealed, under plexi and in separate chambers for move air just in the amp area.

Just run a duct from your A/C vents and never use your heat.

j/k, intake and exhaust fan //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

2 exhaust fans would be your 2nd option

2 intake fans is just *******
