NOISE BLOCKER PL-2

This fan was also sponsored by vhaarr

PACKAGE
This was very premium in terms of packaging, all sort of goodies included. Custom rubber gasket system with studs and thumb nuts. Also comes with two sleeved wire lengths. It really went all out in accessories.

NOISE LEVEL
Fairly similar to the yate medium, perhaps a hair lower at the bottom end and a bit higher at the upper end, but the differences were less than 1dBA which is probably within testing error and within the 3dbA (barely perceptible) range. This is good

NOISE QUALITY
A fair amount better than average. No abnormal resonance peaks, no motor ticks, just a very smooth wind sound type noise. I think it's better than the yate in it appears they use a flatter blade type to soften the noise chop type sound.

EFFICIENCY
Not as good as the yate medium

CFM per RPM
Also not as good as the yate medium, flatter/straighter blade type may be more tuned for case type fan duties.

OVERALL
Cost is a real bummer on these, but they do have very good noise qualities and a load of packaging goodies if that's important to you.

About average noise level, better than average noise quality, premium packaging, and high price.
