Okay.

Reserator with case fans isnt completely silent. Agreed?
Why not SP-94?

Okay.

Reserator 1 + silent PSU = Silence
SP-94 + quiet fan + 2/3 x quiet case fans or fanbus + quiet PSU = Reduced HSF performance and whoosh of air.

Silence? No, and unstable as you say.
What is a "whoosh" of air?

For what? Being slammed by your fanboys?
And i should email you in private because? I am trying to proove the reserator IN A SYSTEM isnt silent because of the other components, and still you think its good to buy?

I hold no grudges by the way, and would expect less aggressiveness if this was discussed over a beer.

I dont think i am being agressive. But i think a silent computer isnt based on no-fans, but on silent fans.
I will make a video of something i am "testing", and PM you the link for it,
I will show you what i believe will the the future of silent computing.
Resume:
Reserator with no case fans= no noise, unstable.
Reserator with case fans= silent, stable.
SP-94 with quiet fan and no case fans= dont know, would like to see.
Sp-94 with quiet fan and case fans= silent+ cooler fan, stale.
Be cool.
