ernst Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]Hi all,[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]I'm thinking of getting a Reidmar 750 to accompany a Barefaced BB2. It seems like a well matched combination and I like the possibility of eventually adding a second 8 ohm cab and get even more sound when the need arises.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]One thing I'm a bit worried about though, is the [/size][/font][/color][b]fan noise[/b][color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4] when using the head tot practise in the living room.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]There is no info in the manual nor on the EBS website as to if the fan is temperature regulated, or just always on maximum RPM.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]Also I did not find any reviews that mentioned about it.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]Is there anybody who owns one who can chime in on this subject?[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]Thank in advance,[/size][/font][/color] [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]Ernst[/size][/font][/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machinehead Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I've never noticed fan noise on mine at home. I have to go out now but I'll check again later and post the result. I think the fact I haven't noticed it before gives you the feeling that it's quiet enough though. Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machinehead Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Right, I switched the amp on in a quiet room and had to put the amp up to my ear to hear the fan. It seems to be running slowly so maybe it speeds up as the amp heats. I doubt you'd need to drive it at all for home practice so the fan's unlikely to ever be heard. And yes, the Reidmar 750 and BB2 is a killer rig and loud enough for any gig. I have a Super Midget as well as a BB2 but rarely use both. Frank.

gs_triumph Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I have a reidmar 750 and the fan noise has never bothered me at all using it in a small bedroom for practice. Yes it can be heard when theirs nothing else going on but playing with the volume at 1 easily drowns it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taunton-hobbit Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I've got a Marshall 200 rackmount - amazingly silly fan noise - my amptech sorted it by installing three slower units - the difference is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
