AC InfinityAIRPLATE S9, Quiet Cooling Fan System 18" with Speed Control, for Home Theater AV Cabinet Cooling

AC Infinity Cooling Fan SystemI've been using the AC Infinity cooling fan system for a while now, and overall, I'm impressed with its performance. The ultra-quiet operation is definitely a highlight - it's perfect for my home theater setup. The multi-speed controllers are also a great feature, allowing me to customize airflow and noise levels.However, I did expect a bit more power from the units for faster cooling. While they do a great job of keeping things cool, I found that they didn't quite match my expectations in terms of speed. That being said, I understand that more powerful fans often come with a trade-off in terms of noise.Despite this, I'm still happy with my purchase. The build quality is excellent, and the fans are durable and reliable. If you're looking for a quiet and effective cooling solution, I'd definitely recommend checking out AC Infinity.Also there support teannis amazing, I contacted them and asked them alot of questions from specs, to my cabinet design and size of which they recommended these.

Put this into the back of my media console to cool a 300w HTPC. Absolutely increased the airflow, while being basically inaudible. Even on its max setting. Seems well-built. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

My PC sits under my desk and generates a lot of heat that makes gaming very uncomfortable - that is until I installed this fan unit. What a major improvement. I run on low speed and so far I'm completely satisfied. The hot air that accumulates under the desk is now exhausted into hallway. The unit is easy to install thanks to the provided template. I drilled a few small holes then used a small jig saw to finish the cut. I'm glad I went with the 3 fan unit because of how quiet it runs.

The entertainment stand I have does bot have a lot of air flow and I am not a fan of open glass stands. The wooden fireplace entertainment stand I have needed options, so the search began.There are a few option out there. I quickly decided fans would be needed to “pull” warm/hot air out versus pushing cool/cold air in the stand. Seeing how the stand I have had completely closed rear section I would need to either mount fans on the side of the stand or behind ) back plate of the stand.Due to the depth of my receiver, it would not sit flush to the front. (AVR would protrude out of the front substantially. I needed to cut the rear section of my stand to allow my AVR to sit flush on the front. I trimmed out a section of the rear of my stand. I did it a little bigger as the AVR I will be upgrading later is taller. Now this extra space allows flush alignment of my components and better access to speaker connections and HDMI’s.With the large opening in the front of my stand. I decided to go with placement of the fans to the rear. This will allow for better airflow. These fans came with template that I used. It was very accurate. Once cut the fans slid right in. Secured the fans and connection for power was easy. Not wanting to take a chance, I went the manual fans and had four settings off, low, medium, high.Prior to the fans after one hours of use, you can feel the heat the AVR was giving off. By three hours, the heat would be concerning. After the fans installation, I can watch tv/movies/games through my receiver all day and not be concern with heat.Vibration of the fan is nonexistent and the fan motors are super quiet. If you turn on just the fans, nothing else on, you can barely hear it on medium. On high, the fans sounds similar to an HP fans on a laptop. Obviously with your AVR running audio you are guaranteed to not hear the fans running. For the cost, the value is there!

Had the product for a few weeks now. Overall I am very happy with it, but it has not been long enough for me to give it 5 stars. Instillation was very easy, the plastic template provided was an excellent guide and much better than a cheaper paper template. The product feels very high quality and looks great. After instillation the fan array is very sleek looking and blends in well from the outside, looks as if it came with the cabinet. On the inside, its basically hidden by my equipment and wires so i was not as concerned with how it looks. That said if you cut the hole correctly it also looks like it came with the cabinet form the inside. Air flow seems to be good. Options available through the control module are good, though I would have liked the option to put an addition buffer on the "Smart" run option. I like using the smart on/off feature because it allows the fans to run at a lower speed when you are far away from your target "on" temperature. The minor annoyance I have experienced with the "smart" run function is that the fans are still constantly turning on and off if the temp moves by one degree below the final buffer temp and coming back up. The normal Auto on feature I think eliminates this issue by setting the buffer temp to 2 or 4 degrees, but then you don't have the option to run the fans at varying speeds. All in all, this is not a huge issue, but something that would be nice in an update. Final reason I cant give it 5 stars yet is that one of the fans in the three fan array seems to be making a slight whining noise, not excessively loud yet but ill have to see if this turns into anything and if it does how warranty is handled. I looked for a while to find a good solution for my A/V cabinet and this product was the nicest I found. Thus far I feel like I got exactly what I was looking for and am happy with the purchase. With regard to air flow, I have not don't any measurements to see how much the fans actually flow, but I can see the temperature differences when the fans turn on.

Awesome product. I had to make a opening of Sanus rack for this. Super smooth

Easy to install and works as advertised.
