thebassist Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I wonder if it has a fan built into it? If it doesn't, it'll definitely be one to add to the list to test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 At 1200 watts it will have a fan. I would put money on it being as silent as a fan could be. Jim Bergantino "road tests" al his gear before it is launched and a noisy fan would be picked up pretty quickly. Again at 1200 watts I would imagine this amp isn't intended to be played at home. Fan noise on a gig isn't an issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebassist Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I know the new Epifani UL901 isn't as powerful (1000 watts as opposed to 1200 watts) but that doesn't have a fan so I hope it's possible that the FortƩ HP might not have a fan. I like to use the same amplifier at home and at events so no fan is something important for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

three Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I too use a Bamp and it runs almost silently - I've not noticed any fan noise whatsoever (the DB750 on which the Bamp sits is another story entirely). Ā As indicated above, I'm pretty sure that JB would pick-up on, and eliminate,Ā any noise issues very quickly. Ā The new Forte HP may not have some of the versatility of the Bamp but in terms ofĀ pure slam, if that's what you need, it's probably a very good option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
