I changed the stock fan on both my Deepmind 12D and Mark V 25 for noctua models. The controller is a nice touch but I would still recommend a better fan. The stock one is simply awful.

PC shops carry the 3 pin Molex connectors and leads. Disconnect fan from board, connect fan connector to male Molex w/ leads, connect those leads to the temp board, and couple temp board to amp board using a female Molex w/ leads. It's the same thing, but it allows for removing of the temp board without having permanently modified the amp if anyone is worried about evidence of modification due to warranty purposes.

I solved my problem with my Ashdown combo amp by installing a potentiometer. This way I can adjust the fan speed to my liking. Easy!

The sensor can probably be put on the heatsink… With a mica isolating pad and nylon grommet over the bolt to stop it shorting or arcing. I’m guessing Ampeg use those separated heat sink sections for each side of the push pull to avoid having to isolate the output transistors from them.

i think there was just a lot of voltage hanging out in there yeah?

An interesting way, but you did not tell what temperature the sensor needs to be calibrated to. And why not replace the fan with a less noisy one?

We just left ours on the default temperature which was about 86 degrees Fahrenheit. We debated on replacing the noisy fan with a quieter but decided to do the controller instead. It rarely turns on, only with heavy use.

@@thedawstudioofficial thanks. I read about it on the forums. Absolutely everyone is annoyed by the fan noise both on this model and on the PF series of amplifiers. Nevertheless, absolutely silent fans, of course, do not exist.

hmm my mesa boogie bass head has a horrible fan sound too. it has tubes or just one maybe. strange bc tube nor SS guitar amps never have fans. maybe it’s not so necessary to have it at all..

Sounds like I just need to disconnect the fan's power supply for home use, and connect it when using it in a band setting.

You could do that, but we've found that in our mod the fan kicks on only sometimes in the studio and often during live shows. It's kind of a safety net to prevent permanent damage to the amp so completely unplugging the fan is probably not the best option.

Rarely in the studio. It's kicked on when I've played live after about 20 minutes into the set..
