Default Adcom cooling fan noise -- it was dust!

The cooling fans in my Adcom GFA5800 are noisier than

After I removed the top plate and front panel, I could see
that it would be too difficult to replace the noisy
right-channel fan in the time I had at my disposal, so I
went to put it all back together to wait until next weekend.
But first I vacuumed out 10 years worth of dust bunnies
clinging to the fan housings. That did it! Now I can barely
hear the fans purring.
