The Goal:

Silence, clean looks (nothing over the top but still pleasing to the eye), functionality (aka overkill?)

Last but not least PERSONAL TASTE! (Built to spec)

Comments:

I love the look of the Mini P180. Being clean, smooth, dead quiet and still very small in size but tonnes of room inside which caters exactly for my personal needs.

Yes I did.. I bought a fan controller!! (I'm very minimalistic..) But since it has a door I can hide it away (all be it a very sexy fan controller) also hiding is a CD drive (no more cables hanging out of the old SG01!)

The case is sound insulated and pending developments I want to do I may padd it further.

Hope you enjoy, rest assured there will be updates and by no means is it finished! No interior pics for now (lots to do inside still!)

Untill next time,
