Hey guys, for these 1 room setups, how do you manage noise from the machines?

Right now, I am trying to figure the best way of tracking without hearing my dual G5. (Right now, I've got it outside of the room, so I simply close the door, and it's sufficiently lowered. I had it in the closet, but the lack of air flow seemed to invite the big fans more often.)

And, now my Furman power regulator is getting 125 volts input, and is buzzing. So I disconnected that, will put it in the closet, and will run extension cords from the gear rack to it. It's convoluted, but worth moving it away. Hope it's not a fire hazard.)

The noisy G5 is my main drag. I was considering investing in the Gefen monitor-usb-firewire extensions,
or perhaps, I should consider one of those enclosures. A properly ventilated & sonically isolated machine room would be nice.

Anyway, I was wondering how you guys deal with this noise from the machine issue?

Thanks
