Does the Sansom XP150 have a cooling fan in the amplifier? If so, is it very loud?

Hmmm...not sure about the fan, but I haven't heard it and I normally sit within arm's reach of it when using it. I am not using it in a super quiet location, such as a studio, however. When packing up after two hours of use I haven't noticed that the unit is hot.

Thank you for inquiring.The XP150 incorporates a D Class (digital) amplifier so besides being extremely light weight, there is no need for a cooling fan.

It does have a cooling fan and it is pretty loud. You probably will not hear it much if you're playing music, but if it is near recording equipment you can hear it.

Great question! The amp is well vented, but I don't know if there is a cooling fan or simply vented. I have never heard any ambient or mechanical noise in the unit. I have now purchased 3 systems because of their portability, simplicity, and clean sound. There are better and louder systems available, but for us this is the perfect little set up.

Shame on you for poor product knowledge, Sam Ash.... This unit DOES indeed have a cooling fan, and although it's not terribly loud, it's far from quiet. Not for use in a recording situation...

Yes, it has a fan. Unfortunately, I had to return both of the units I had because the switch was inoperable on both of them. I'm looking for something else now.

Well, weird as it may seem, I am looking for a fan that actually makes a noticeable hum/sound. We use it as a sound conditioner and to drown out external noise when sleeping. Does anyone know of one that would meet that requirement? Ours is about to quit, and it is not the time of year to find one in a retail store. Thank you.

You can hear the fan when its running, but I don't think it is loud. I put on music when I was using it and I wasn't bothered by the sound of the fan.

Yes, it has a fan. I just turned it on and put my ear near it and heard it and felt it.

Hello Debby, The short answer to that is no, I have had two of these PW3500s and apart from the cooling fan which is very quite they make no noise, even on full load.John.

No, mine didn't have one....Might be able to add on I'm not sure....We did use a small "stand alone" aux fan to push warm air.

My XBR4 makes zero noise. I don't think that it has a fan. I'd say just from a simple hand test the temp on mine doesn't get much higher than the room temp, even after hours of being on. I love this TV.

No, fan. My drive sounds like a fan is inside. Just the high rpm. The drive enclosure look to provided satisfactory cooling. I have it hooked to a X1 and it goes to sleep when the X1 does.

It comes with a fan yes, but with normal use it gets quite loud. It stays cool but it's noisy, I got a Zalman CNPS9005A-LED which says it's for up to AM3 but AM3+ is the same mount. It's still a little noisy under heavy load but it keeps the temp around 45, highest I've seen is 53

No detectable noise and no fan that I saw. However, there are vents along the side so I'm guessing there is some kind of ventilation system to keep it cool. Whatever or however it does that, noise is not a factor.

Yes, the fan is pretty loud. I don't mind it because I have the oven on a stand in my basement and use it as a supplemental oven.

It has a small fan in it but I never really hear it. If you have any music or ac/heat on in the car you won't hear it. At least in my uses I haven't heard it.

it has an open design and the sound varies depending upon how many other fans you have running. I have a corsair cs550m powersuppy and just the cpu fan running. If I'm not view a video, transcoding or compiling a program the cpu fan can be noticed but otherwise its quiet. I don't run the side fans at all as they added some noise but they may be necessary if you plan to put a GPU card in it.

Mine has no fan, is extremely quiet and is really cool to the touch. I think older versions of this had a fan, but to me that's just something to break or collect dust.

Not that I know of, I just bought two separately. I'm not sure if I'm using it in the right configuration, but it's very quiet. I run it straight through a mixer, and it's very little sound. Tried to run it linked through a speaker once and didn't work right. Maybe in the right system these would deliver more punch.
