Awesome.
I have to wait to be married to see my cases.
I'm happy about the success of this project, but dropped out early when I realized that it would not be suitable for the projects that I have in mind. The real estate available in this chassis strongly suggests a dual mono approach, which would mean a very heavy final product, maybe even a two-person lift.
Now that it has come to pass, however, Gianluca, let me ask you this: Might you develop a large heatsink monoblock chassis at some point? With perhaps a 5U 300 or 400mm heatsink, suitable for some of those big device, hot running amps that are popping up these days? I know I could just order two 5U Deluxe chassis from the store, but the wasted extra heatsink and the unnecessary weight (and presumably cost) would keep me up at night. ;-)
Congrats again on the success of this project.

We've had other people ask for a MonoBlock chassis in the past so there is definitely some interest.
As I have said other times we are open to all kind of suggestions, the main thing to keep into consideration is that in order to develop a new product we need CAD drawings representing how the chassis would need to be made.
Pico has done a wonderful job in submitting these for this project and I think this should apply to other things as well.
What I am trying to say is we cannot "come up" with ideas and this is where the community comes in: how knows better than the people on the forums what would work best for them?
We are more than happy to happy with new projects, we just need to know exactly what people want and how they want us to do it
And yes, these chassis are heavy. One boxed kit is about 17 kg!

Personally I think it could be nice with a tall narrow design, with a possibility to mirror, such that the heatsinks point to the speakers e.g.
Kinda along the lines of what is done in this post:

Thanks for your support, appreciate it
It's just a matter of understanding how to mount the part without the heatsink, everything else should be a breeze
Have a look at this thread:
