Thanks for the info Meiko41 !

At what load (the percentage on the display) does the noise from the capacitors becomes annoying ? Do the fans stay always on or they kick in when you reach certain temperature ? I guess the fan is not an issue if the temperature is not above say 50 deg C as you can always use some sort of 12v -> 9v adapter like in computer fans to reduce the rotations.



The noises from capacitors bother me as soon as I am beyond 100W (which means in my case, as soon as I turn on my amplifiers).
The fans (at least for PP2000) are always on. I also asked why it was not triggered by the temperature but I have been told that it was silent enough. Which is somehow true, but not by night (unless you can stay more than 5m away from it). For sure, you can install step-down voltage but I would like to avoid customizing devices which deal with main power.
