AudioDoctor Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Currently, I am using the plastic case, and fan in slow mode, that came with the Canakit starter pro Pi4 kit I bought from Microcenter. I have no complaints about the temps, I can't hear the fan and even as I type this I can't think if a reason other than looks that I am even interested in this case, but... Has anyone used, or is using, this case from Akasa and have anything about it they would share? http://www.akasa.com.tw/update.php?tpl=product/product.detail.tpl&no=181&type=Fanless Chassis&type_sub=Fanless Raspberry Pi&model=A-RA09-M1S No electron left behind.

firedog Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Not that one, but a different aluminium case with passive cooling. It works fine and looks nice. I bought it for looks.

seeteeyou Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 FYI - the weight of each case makes a (significant) difference due to vibration control, here's one @ 785g https://www.facebook.com/groups/149414109857805/permalink/179358363530046 Quote Although it is our policy not to mention anything about sound quality, the difference from a normal aluminium case is so huge! Someone else actually ordered 3 of them afterwards https://www.my-hiend.com/vbb/showthread.php?13157-piCorePlayer6-1-0-Xenomai-44-1-48KHz雙機入門簡易安裝教學&p=243512#post243512 And then here's another one @ 600g https://www.symphonic-mpd.com/forum/topic/75/ラズパイのケース/15 We tried to get a group buy started but unfortunately it ain't getting too far https://www.3dhubs.com/manufacture/?technology=cnc-machining&material=copper Case Top Case Bottom Link to comment
