It's reliable Doepfer

I bought this case for expanding my modulation sources and it does well. I don't know how it is for audio modules as I don't have any in it. My only wish is that it doesn't have a power switch. The one thing I did encounter which wasn't a biggie, I live in Canada and it shipped with a European style power cord. But a regular North American cord plugs into it, no worries.

Almost perfect, but really good for its price

This is a really basic modular case, power is not huge but it's way enough for a case of that size.

Only two drawbacks:

-The modules get sometimes stuck as the space between the two rails is a little bit too big, but this not such a big problem.

- The PSU brick is attached on the right side of the case, in line with the AC cord connector. It is a bit a pity as it prevents the installation of deep modules on the right side. If they would have put the brick on the back inside next to the PCB it would have been perfect.

They also could have used shrouded header connector for the PSU for the careless ones that could connect their modules the wrong way but if you are used to it, it is not a big deal :D

I would buy that case again, only reason I'd see to separate with it would be to get a bigger one.
