- I have my SS2 sitting on my desk directly in front
- of me with the monitor on top of it. I too found it a bit
- noisy. I discovered though that simply blocking the opening
- in the front of the slab between the two front feet prevented
- a large amount of noise from coming out the front directly
- at me. There are still large openings on the sides for
- ventalation. If you try this make sure the sides are clear.
- This has made a LARGE difference to me. Just something less
- readical to try.
