MOTM

Thanks for the links and info. Looks like you've got all MOTM and Oakley together and Dotcom in other cases. 

What about mixing and matching? I know they aren't exactly the same size, but if I wanted to put both Dotcom panelled modules and MOTM panelled modules in the same rack frames, could I? Would the hole line up on either the MOTM rails or the Dotcom rails? I'm so used to pushing everything together in the MDF case, that I forgot about whether anything would line up. I don't care about gaps (for now), but just lining up modules.

My plan was to install a Dotcom power supply (is QPS3 too big to fit the rack case?) and attach the MOTM 995 board then mix and match. I would couple to other cases using Dotcom harnesses and cables (eventually plan at least 4 to 6). Will this work? Should I really have a separate power supply for every cabinet? Doesn't that get really heavy/expensive?

Also, any tips on mounting the power supply and 995? Just drill some holes in the bottom and  use screws and washers? What studs do you recommend for mounting the 995 board?

Running out of room in the Dotcom entry system, and I want to start building some MOTM modules, so I need more room. Paul, I still want a 730, but I'm saving a little every week.

Hi Erik,

They are EWI Tourcase from Audiopile:

I originally heard about them on Richard Brewster's site:
