I don't currently own any wedge Amiga's (all big box), but the one thing I miss about 'em is the fact that they are s-i-l-e-n-t. I don't think anyone's mentioned that yet. The A1200/A600/A500 are as quiet as can be. Even with HD's installed in 'em. The A1000 is pretty silent quiet though. There's got to be quieter fans out there that could be swapped out with the other big box Amiga's though...
Thats the only thing I don't like about my towered up A1200, all the fans I've had to install to keep everything cool, fans in the power supply, Hard disks, DVD burners and PPC card and I don't think it helps much being in a custom built case made of wood...

The best solution I came up with was to build in a custom amp to play cd's or mp3s to drown out the noise of the fans...
