Title: SP10 VS S2 - Comparison of noise, can anyone comment on this? Post by: wpgdeez on May 26, 2014, 02:59:07 PM I have a SP10 that is WAY too loud and was wondering if anyone has had a chance to compare the SP10 to a S2? If you have both how much more tolerable is the S2 in comparison with the SP10? The SP10 is ridiculously loud, it sounds like a saw running 24/7.

The S2 also emits a much lower frequency and there lies the possibility of installing quieter fans. Title: Re: SP10 VS S2 - Comparison of noise, can anyone comment on this?

Post by: dogie on May 26, 2014, 03:58:37 PM S2 is effectively silent under 26-27C ambient. The two do not come close to comparing.
