They just look more like a home theater device instead of a standard computer case. I've had people over ask where my computer is

For downloading movies and watching it through the pc and as a pvr. Didn't want an empty plug in the back of the tv and I had a spare computer sitting in the closet so I converted it to a media center and hooked it up . I don't have a htpc case so I just put a tower behind the tv with all the wires and 2nd power bar on top of it. And I have no room for a htpc case on the tv stand anyways

Anyone interested in buying my Mozart Sx Slim with VFD and remote?



Sells on NCIX for $235 with tax

I can do $180 even (shipping will cost me over $80!!!)

If you don't mind waiting, I can ship via surface which can take a few weeks but significantly cheaper - $125 for everything.

The case has only been used for about a week, while I tested it for a review I wrote.

I just want to get rid of it, it's taking up what little space I have.

err _hotsauce_, how does 3 rear speakers work? wouldn't that sound totally effed?

just me but I hate the look of speakers that sit further forward than the screen, looks wierd and distracting.


my setup:

Source:
Compaq Presario POS w/6800 OC + 370GB HDD + TV Tuner (runs HD just fine though)
N64
NES
SEGA Genesis
PSX
PS2
Gamecube

Screen:
Acer 19"

Sound:
Venturer HTIB [fronts + sub]
Sony mini stereo [rear]
Cyber Acoustics computer speakers [side]
(combined for wierd 7.3, sounds pretty good but changing volume is a bitch with 3 amp controls)

Comfort:
shitty computer chair
bed



parents setup:

Source:
Shaw HD PVR
PS3

Screen:
Samsung 52" beastie

Sound:
Fisher receiver and speakers [front]
(build date says Mar 1985 haha, still loud as all hell and pretty clear)

Comfort:
3 seat leather "media couch" (triple recliner w/ cup holders)
regular couch
bigass pillows (think predecessor to the SUMO beanbags)
