Refrigerator noise

Seriously guys, how do you deal with it? My fridge is in the vicinity of my living room with all my equipment. It's pretty old machine, and the compressor is making noise almost half the time it's on ( seems to me pretty unusual, when I go to see my friends I never hear anything). I even set the level lower, but to no avail. Anybody with a similar problem? How can you check noise of a new fridge in a fairly loud environment of big store? Any recommendation (brand names)? No ice boxes please... :-)

How about contacting Custom Kitchen Deliveries...they could help move that refrigerator!

Well good luck with your choice Tvad. I'm sure it will suit.

I've found Consumer Reports, by and large, not to be tthe last word on if an item is a quality made one however. here, I used the years of exp the companies I worked for had, and that of my own to determine at least one thing... if it is built and is as important as are ice boxes, good service is so important to have about, and those who build their own do fare better as a rule.

For the OP... that $20 RF remote should be a consideration to attenuate noise during playback. Either that or learning to live with higher volume levels that will drown out the fridge..

How does the RF remote work? I'm assuming I plug it into a power outlet and plug the fridge power cord into it. And then I can turn on/off the fridge with a remote?
I better not forget to turn it back on :-)
