Amp enclosure for DIY Hypex

[mfb]

I rememeber seeing a few post on various enclosures. Any recommendations for a DIY case for a monblock Hypex amp. I will would like to copy the Rowland 201/501, Nuforce 9 form factor.

thanks,

how about these?

How to buy them? dunno. I know one vendor in Italy who sells them online but the shipping to the US is about the same as price of the enclosures (which are quite affordable)

I really like their big heat sink enclosures with large handles - but again - I am not going to spend $90 to ship a 95 euro enclosure...

You have to email them and ask for the price list and shipping fee.

Thanks. If it is not too troublesome, how much is that enclosure you were refering to (excluding shipping)?

From memory USD $70.

To save on shipping I bought 3 cases for various projects. Nicely finished for the price.

thanks guys for the feedback. Still haven't found anything that I like. Kevin (DIYCable) has a nice one, may use it for a five channel version (just can't get excited with the looks). I also want to keep a silver theme with my other components.

I have a machinist in my area that is interested in doing a custom enclosure. If the Hypex performs as well as advertised then it might be fun trying to copy the Rowland chassis. I just love the way it looks.
