[TenTec] Centaur quiet fan?

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I don't know the actual fan, but what I do for tube-type stereo stuff (where
you don't want to hear the fan) is either choose one with the lowest current
draw, or just use a 220 fan in a 110 application.  I have a  bunch of muffin
fans, some sound like an airplane propeller, and some make no sound at all.
Generally the louder they are, the more CFM they are moving. So a quieter
fan may not offer enough cooling. I suspect TenTec chose the fan on cooling
requirements rather than what fans they had laying around.
