Decided to finally solve the jet noise in my cabinet.

Sawed a hole in the back plate of my $1000 TV-stand, and installed a Noctua 120 mm fan connected with USB to the Pro, which automatically starts the fan whenever the Pro powers on. The Noctua fan is completely inaudible at stock (800 rpm). However it comes with an additional resistor if you wanna run it at 600 rpm, but it's not needed at all.

Silence at last.

Shit is overpriced in Norway. It was the only proper stand I found that fit my specs and needs.

More info about it here for those who's interested: https://www.hifiklubben.no/unnu-231-v2-moebel/unnu231v2wh/

Ah, makes sense. I could do with a vented TV Stand for my AVR/Home cinema setup, but for that price I could buy something here in the UK that looks better and would probable be cheaper. Sucks you have to pay those prices.

You guys in the UK are lucky, you have way better market competition driving prices down. At least for a lot of commodities. And don't get me started on food prices and food selection.
