SAWEEEEET!!!!!! Very "Cool". :up:

Really awesome job. :up:

Do you plan on putting grills back in front of the fans or leaving them open?

I have them grills They are really hard to connect, but can be done with time and patients. They are the exact same size!!! you knew in 1990 that they would make the speakers holes wide enough to for my 220mm fans lol .

Sorry for the Spam!!!

Well I entered this case in another Case Mod Contest!!!!!!! Currenlty 3rd in the popular vote !!!!!

It seems to be a popularity contest instead of a case mod contest. damn shame alot of good cases with little votes

LANOC Case Mod Contest

You get one vote every 24 hours after you register

any help would greatly be appreciated

good luck! my rockin case only has 2 votes :D

Yea I feel sorry for all of the modders, not really a case mod contest anymore. just go out and see you can get teh most votes, i have already expressed my thoughts with the admin>

SXRguyinMA i would have voted for yours all day excellent job

yea I noticed that. it's "who has the most friends registered" it's a shame it's like that with such high-dollar prizes being given away as well. 2 of the mods were up to 41 votes as of this morning. Basically if I wanted to (but I'm not that kinda guy) I could make up 50 random email accounts, and register 50 random names with said email accounts, then vote myself into #1. It's ridiculous really. Hope you win something though! Yours came out excellent!

Thank you

only 14 votes behind thanks for all your support

"Thread Jacking" (hope you don't mind)
I had the same thing happen to me. I spoke with the admin, There were some hosting issues the other day. And they have been watching the votes carefully seems there were some "odd" voting... and some votes were pulled. I know I lost some votes too. But I feel better knowing that there is someone out there that is spending time trying to keep it fair.

Back on subject:
JJ I loved this Mod.. It is by far the Best Boom box mod I've seen.... You always do great work!!!
I kind of figured you and SXR would be in the lead and I'd be playing catchup... It's still early and anything can happen....

Best Of luck to you both!....


Everyone Go vote, pick the Mod you like Best!!! and Do it each day till the 10th.

Yep he is removing mutiple votes from same ip i do believe. I email him teh ifo about a loop hole as well.

well it says we can vote once a day, so obviously I'm going to have the same ip every day

ummm so I just went to do my 24hr vote...and after I voted I'm down to 4! f-them. what a load of bs. I voted personally 3 times, and I know my wife voted for me at least twice. I should have 5 minimum. waste of time

I love this case btw. makes me miss my old stereo.

Awesome job on this thing.:up:

I used to carry one of these around when I was younger. I had my back pockets full of cassette tapes to jam out to. :) Awww those were the days....


It turned out really cool. Looks great with all the lights on to. Good luck on the voting too.
