AC Infinity AIRPLATE T8 White, Quiet Cooling Dual-Fan System 6" with Thermostat Control, for Home Theater AV Cabinets

Superb product. I've been buying on Amazon for years now and without a shadow of a doubt this is the best product ever provided by a third party on the Amazon platform. Spot on design, build quality, packaging, presentation, instructions, delivery etc, everything about it shouts "premium". This is not a cheaply made piece of garbage with badly translated instructions yet it provides great value for money.

Brilliant, it does have a high pitch whine when running on full. It does exactly as described. I needed something for my account cupboard not a media unit and this seemed the best product and I am not dissappointed.

Bought this to replace a cooling kit [from another manufacturer] that I had installed in my AV cabinet a few years ago. It was working well until the controller died (and even the replacement one I ordered didn't work) so I started looking at alternatives. Not only does this appear to be the only alternative, this was exactly the thing I was looking for... fan size... controller specifications... even down to the colour (the cabinet is white - I had to respray the grilles on my last cooling kit).The highlight of this kit is clearly the controller. It has excellent functionality. From the front panel, the fans can be set to be permanently off, on continuously (with a choice of six speeds), automatically controlled (fans switched on and off based on temperature limits, again with a choice of six speeds) or can run in 'Smart' mode which continuously varies fan speed depending on cooling demand. There is also a user-definable 'high temperature' alarm. All accessed through the attractive display which you can control the brightness of, or switch off.Basically, it's perfect for my needs, which is cooling a small cabinet with a high power surround receiver, Blu-ray player, cable tv box, games console and LED ambient lighting. It’s performance is hard to find fault with. The overall build quality of all components is superb and the design is really very well thought out. If I had to pick holes, there are two. First, I'd say the fans (which usefully come configured as 'intake' and 'exhaust' but can be changed) - in my experience - aren't the quietest fans out there. Don't get me wrong... they're not by any means 'noisy', especially at low fans speeds... but I can see at some point, I may look at eventually replacing them with another brand's fans which are noted for their quiet running. The other issue I have found is that when in 'Smart' mode, it can pulse between two fan speeds every few seconds as the temperature the probe senses bounces between one or two degrees. There is a buffer you can adjust to combat this, but I've found it doesn't entirely solve the problem.Other than that, this is an excellent AV cabinet cooling kit. Highly recommended.

This is a well built and designed product, easy to fit with the included plastic templates for the fans and controller. As expected though, the fans are relatively noisy. It’s not a surprise at this price point as a pair of decent fans are half the cost of this unit. I wish manufacturers would sell these without fans so you can supply your own.I ended up buying 2x Noctua NF-A12x25 5V. It’s important you get the 5V version and non PWM.With these fitted, noise levels were dramatically decreased. I measured before and after with the dB meter on top of the cabinet the fans were in.Ambient noise level 35.4 dBAOld fans:Min speed - 38.4 dBAMax speed - 46 dBANoctua fans:Min speed - 35.4 dBAMax speed - 45.3 dBAAs you can see the Noctua fans are inaudible at the lowest speed. It’s also worth noting that the noise is a different tone that is easy to ignore, as opposed to the higher pitched tones present on the standard fans.The Noctua fans spin faster at the max setting, so this accounts for the noise levels being closer to the standard fans, even so, they’re still quieter and it’s unlikely you’d want, or need those speeds, without some serious heat issues anyway.I’d recommend the installation of fine mesh filters to stop the dust affecting the fans and the inlet sucking dust into your cabinet.When the fans are off there is a high pitched tone from the power supply but I can’t hear this when behind the cabinet. Worth noting though if you have this plugged in somewhere close and exposed.Edit: The power supply actually died after a couple of weeks, which accounts for the high pitched tone. AC Infinity is a US company. Their website doesn't actually list these as having the option for a UK plug, but it was labelled AC infinity. Rather than having to remove everything from my cabinet and send back, I sourced a better quality, identical spec power supply locally. For reference you would need a 2A (or higher) 6.5V (7V Max according to specs) AC adapter with a 2.1mm x 5.5mm jack. Since fitting the new one it has been absolutely fine. I may have just got unlucky, but worth factoring in.In conclusion your money is buying a good looking frame, great installation instructions with plastic templates and a quality fan controller. In my mind this is still worth the purchase cost, just factor in that you may want to replace the fans and need to replace the ac adapter.

Looks deluxe, and superbly well made and I wanted to keep/use it BUT it shipped with what I think is a US power plug. I received another version which had the same issue but that one shipped with a shaver adaptor - this didnt even have that
