Ceiling fan in listening room?


Hi all,

Not sure if Tech Talk is the best forum to post this question, but would appreciate any comments / recommendations from our group. My listening room is in our below ground level  basement. Routing air conditioning to the space is not practical, and I am looking for alternatives to provide ventilation. Does anyone have any recommendations on or experience with use of a ceiling fan in a listening room?  Naturally I am concerned with the interaction of the fan's air circulation and the speaker output. Thanks in advance for any  input!

My listening room is upstairs in a house in middle Georgia. My gear is running about 1 kW at idle.  I found a DC motor ceiling fan that spins at 52 rpm on low.  It is a must in the summertime here.  This is the third ceiling fan I have had in this room and by far the quietest and least obtrusive.  

@rbanathy This works surprisingly well in my room. On a side table near listening seat, at lower speeds it's dead quiet and for cost & easy returns, it's worth a try. It's basically a knockoff of the Dyson that sells for ~triple the price.

I had to pull mine out of room, huge fan blades messed with sound stage.

I have never had an issue with a CF killing sound. I also have 14 foot ceiling and the drop is only 5 feet.
