Yep, nothing some compressed air can't cure every now and
then.

YEp, got to impress!

HEy that noisy fan's even more impressive!  "WOw man that's
gotta be one big assed amp dude!  Listen to that fan.  One
honkin' fan to cool that puppy down!"
Maybe that's what that dude needed for his big honkin'
amplifier that was so many kw he was telling us about.  What
was it, a Melhart?

wE're talking the same principle as the big jacked up pickup
with the loud pipes.  Big and loud impresses, and they like
that.
I bought a PAS power amplifier because it was cheap and it
would run a couple monitor wedges many years ago.  gUnmetal
gray case, big noisy fan.  Iirc you could drive that puppy
into a 2 ohm load though and it didn't break a sweat all
night long.
