I am building the ESP high power amp (project 101) which requires fairly substantial heatsinks so I will need a pretty large aluminum case. What would be the best source for those? I see tons of cases on Ebay from China but besides few photos, I have no idea if they are worth it or not. I know that large aluminum case with big heatsinks is not going to be cheap so at least I would like to make sure the quality is good. Last case I purchased on Ebay from China for my preamp was just OK. I still had to enlarge few holes so everything fits properly and use lot of thread locker so parts stay together.
Landfall Systems makes excellent aluminum chassis, whatever size you want. I used them for my monster 833C monoblock tube amps, with excellent results. Great service, too!

There should be some options for Modushop to do the drilling, if you don't want to do that,
if you buy it directly from them.

Thanks. The Modushop cases look very nice.
If bought from the diyAudio store, delivery is faster, with cheaper shipping.
But there's no drilling option.
