Large amp fan for Classe CAV150


My Classe CAV150 is running really hot with my Thiel CS3.6 ran in bridged mode.  It looks like the AV Infinity fan is too small for this unit.  Has anyone found a good "flat" quiet fan that might be good for this?  Options?

Has anyone ever measured the sound level of the ACInfintiy T9? Their specs say 21dBA but don’t mention what distance from the unit where that level was measured. I wrote to their tech support and they said they cannot answer that ("we are unable to provide you with the exact distance from which our engineers measure the fan’s noise levels. From my understanding, the dBA ratings are averages of different distances")

Has anyone ever measured the sound of a T9 by itself at say 1m?

Without knowing the distance from the device where your measurement is taken it doesn’t say much. For example, my backup generator is supposed to be a "quiet 74dB", but what they don’t tell you is the generator industry measures sound levels 22’ from the generator. If you're standing next to it, like at 1m, its around 98dBA, which I consider LOUD.
