I agree that some additional electrical noise will doubtless be introduced,
but given I run the fan at the low setting only whan the volume is higher
than
normal [say 1W / channel], and at the high setting when cranked up beyond
about 15W / channel, it will be lost under the levels sent to the speakers.
The noise I was talking about was audible noise caused by the fan moving
the air, not interference. Switching between Off <-> Hi <-> Lo settings on
the fan cause a noticeable spike in the mains supply but running at any one
setting is fine. At even low-moderate volume levels, the sound generated
by the fan on Lo-speed is totally masked except between tracks.
Cheers,
