And the picture with the lid opened shows at least a 3rd fan.
Too stupid. 

And for that price tag, I could buy another Deltatronic Silentium:
http://www.deltatronic.de/int/pc/index.html
If you look inside one of these, they simply replace all the fans
with a heatpipe, and use the enclosure as a huge heatsink.
That's the least a tool dedicated to creating music can do.

(I'm aware that the deltatronic is a PC, and the Muse is more
than a PC, based on PC technology - but why not build such a
system on a *silent* PC to start with ??)
