Hopefully not their Mirage 4000 Pro tower? I'm glad I got rid of mine... Next to the MicroniK plastic towers, the Mirage 4000 Pro tower is the worst tower I have owned :-(

@doctorq:

Mirage 4000, while not the perfect of towers, is actually better than Mirage 1200 and 3000, believe it or not.:-)


Could be, I'm not in a position to verify that, since I have never owned any of the other towers. I just know that I hated the Mirage 4000 Pro tower since the day I got it. I pulled the Mediator board and sold the tower.

I prefer my self-customized Chieftech Dragon tower much better; not that difficult a task to do :-) The only thing I need to get running is my black disk drive; it doesn't look like I'm going to succeed there :-(

Why not take a normal Amiga drive and just remove the faceplate and button, paint them, and re-install?  :-)


This is the solution I'm trying the next time, unless one of the two new drives I'm getting home doesn't work with the Amiga. Just wanted a new diskdrive, that's all, and Amiga diskdrives are SOO expensive :-(

@adonay

No, you didn't offend my at all. Different people prefer different things, some like their ELBOX tower, but I certainly did not.

Noise problems? I have none, no vibration or anything. Are you sure we are talking about the same tower? Anyways, I use Papst 12 dB and 19 dB fans, so noise isn't a problem here. I have two fans placed in the side plate and currently only one inside the tower (a 19 dB on my PPC CPU).

Micronik Towers made of plastic?
Which model(s) are you talking about?


I'm talking about the MicroniK Infinitiv towers for A1200. I take it you haven't owned one of these, otherwise you would know what I was talking about. See it here.

And whats so bad with it (I mean the Micronik tower)?


I haven't got a problem with the MicroniK tower you are talking about (the A4k version). I have one of those myself; I'm talking about the MicroniK Infinitv tower and the Mirage 4000 Pro tower.
