Anyone know of a good, quiet, small fan?

Hi folks, I'm trying to increase the air circulation around my amplifier in its equipment cabinet. the back of the cabinet is completely open, and it's a pretty cavernous space, but I think heat dissipation could use a little assist. All of the fans I've found locally are too noisy. Ideally I'd like something that I could mount on the underside of the interior of the cabinet above and behind the amplifier, that would pull hot air out the back. Any good suggestions?

Look into laptop computer platform coolers, great value, low cost. You do not need a computer usb connection to power them as most can use outboard power warts. I use these to cool my tube amps, most provide little noise.

Vornado Zippi - about $25 and dead quiet. Cloth blades too, just in case the cat sticks his nose into it.

Try giving Falcon Northwest a call. They build high-end custom PC desktops and laptop computers. They have some really nice, quiet fans that might work for you.
