Cases for electronics

specter73 · 6th April 2005, 10:09 AM

Hi to everyone,

New on this forum.
I'm wondering if someone can address me to a valid cases manufacturer ,able to make product customization such as silk printed texts,milling ,drilling and some other works.
I built a hifi power amplifier and I would accomodate it in a "goodlooking" case.
I'm searching something with professional look ,not patched up solutions.

here it is an image of a mine previous work :

I 'm searching something of similar,you see?

I can buy everywhere in the world,altough I would prefer in the Europe.
Price is not important.Hi quality and customization possibilities are important.

Hoping in your help

Any useful suggetsion will be appreciated

Bye

Hi,

I emailed HIFI2000 some time ago, but never got an answer

Has anyone here done buisness with them?

Hi guys,

The cases displayed in the photo come from Hifi2000.
But I found this company very unreliable.

So I'm wondering for other companies.

Other suggestions?

Thanks

Although they don't make cases, front panel express will make you a professional front panel, including engraved text in any color/ font you can provide. Just downoad their software and have at it; email your file and they send you a panel. Or send them your front or back panel from your case and they will drill and engrave it-- but don't send them a steel panel they only work with aluminum.

I've used them before to do panels, see my web site (indicated below near my signature line I think) for examples. Here is a good example.

You might want to take a look at Par-metal stuff. The 20 series seems to look nice and they reply to remails fast. Havnt used them myself but i know peopl who have.

Hi everybody!
About Front Panel Designer: there's a german company running the same business and using the same software of Front Panel Express: http://www.schaeffer-apparatebau.de .

About Hifi2000: This company sells the HiFi2000 cases at the same prices of the original manufacturer.

I never did business with these people, yet...
