    Default fan questions

    i am istalling two amps under a false floor, i will obviously need to put a fan or two in there, just wondering what type of fans everyone uses and how they go about installing them.
    Cheers

    Use two fans, one on either side, fans are directional so put one sucking air in on one side and the other pulling the air out on the other side. Something like whats below works good, just make sure you get ball bearing versions as they last much longer.
