Re: [TCLUG:14213] Sound Proofing

Well, before I starting using 4 drive cooling fans, the PC Power
and Cooling power supply was *very* quiet.  You can go to their
site, they make sure you have every possibly specification you
could ever need, including noise level.

The 275W power supply is the largest one they have in their "Silencer"
class, but it is very high quality.  I use it topower 1 case fan,
1 CPU fan, 4 hard drive fans (only 2 power leads), 3 hard drives,
2 CD/DVD-ROMs, and one floppy drive.  Not bad.  Very quiet.

I haven't used it yet... I've wasted the last two months trying to find a
local dealer and haven't had any luck.  I talked to a couple studios in the
area and this is what they suggested to me.  There are some local
alternatives but you need to purchase it in 100 foot lots, or else its the
foot thick angled absorption stuff for studios.

If (when) I get this I'll be ordering the 1/2"embossed foam, as its for
absorption and not blocking... that should take care of a good chunk of the
ambient noise that gets through the vents.  The only problem I'm having with
the plan is figuring out a way to dampen the power supply and other exposed
fans.

Now this I could go for. I assume you've used this, which of their many,
many foam-types did you use?
