I hear the a/c when it is on, kind of cycles, I hear it more when the recirc is on. But it is not terrible, just sounds like it's working.

Cooper S,


Did you find out anything about your AC whine? Mine does the exact same thing. The posts on the other NAM streams speculate but don't really say one way or another.
