I'm going to let my wife read your post!! So back me up on this!
have no idea what a soft spoken female.....
After being in a band and seeing everyone's in-ear molds and how different they all were - it suddenly clicked with me that we really do all hear differently; why our lead singer was always wanting more bass, why our drummer seemed to always want less.Auditory perception is an interesting field, but it keeps my job fun. Vision in comparison is pretty boring, 20/20 is the same for everyone. No one wants to have glasses that make things just a little fuzzy etc.

The fan in my III is much louder than the one in my II XL+. It makes a really annoying low-pitched drone which is currently the loudest thing in my studio. I can actually hear it over the fan in my GT1000FX, albeit only slightly.
The acoustics of the ear canal really make a big difference for IEMs or in ear hearing aids. They have a device that lets you fit a little probe mic into the ear canal and then it also has a reference mic outside the ear. You then play a frequency sweep from a speaker and the unit displays the output levels across the frequency range, letting you see if there are certain frequencies that have a peak or a dip, based upon the resonance of the ear canal etc. sometimes a certain frequency is really acentuated which can cause someone to feel their amp needs more or less lows etc. These days things can be digitally adjusted through software but in the past you had to make physical changes to the fit, add an acoustic vent, change vent size etc to adjust the frequency response. Kind of fun in that it took some unique skills where today it’s a lot more just pressing a button and letting the software do all the work lol
Think you are over analyzing this. It’s simple: if it annoys you it’s too loud.....

Just a thought: but one thing to consider is the location and mounting of the fan.
Exactly what I’d say mine does. Seems we have 2 camps, fan is essentially silent and fan is noticeable, if not more so than previous units
Hate to throw around the “bad batch” phrase but I’m starting to wonder if maybe a few days but production used different parts or something.
