Funny you should mention this Colin,
I'm working on amplifiers powered by ANTI-MATTER...
If we can achieve this, ANTI-NOISE will be a walk in the park.
*** Seriously (yeah right), you need a condenser microphone on a tripod 3
feet from the affront of your amp. A mic amplifier, a phase shifting
network, an audio power amplifier and speakers all bolted into the amp rack
next to the RF power amp...
When at full power adjust the phase shifting network until the amp is
silent. Total BOSE system for your amp. It would probably neutralize choke
talk and everything. Dead silence.
The trick will be keeping the RF out of the AF amp.

Subject: Re: [Amps] Getting rid of blower noise
I have another suggestion - or more correctly called "fighting noise with
noise".
WARNING: this is one of those ideas that would come out after a few hams
with big amplifiers were sitting around during the low sunspot cycle
imbibing, and is not based upon research or special knowledge:
Since big amplifiers need air and air movement necessarily makes noise, one
approach would be to simply make the noise invisible by picking up the noise
and generating out of phase noise to cancel out the actual noise generated.
What you cannot hear would not be objectionable. In aircraft, we use noise
candelling microphones and headsets. The announcers at noisy events speak
into the microphone with almost no interference from the loud noise at the
event.
So, what we need are noisy fans which generate anti-noise.
