Interesting Uses for Speaker Grills...

[alexvdl]

Or grilles if you wanna be British.

But I just resaized that i have a couple of six by nine grills ands a couple of six and a half grills kiicking around. The One grills looks just asbout the right size to hide an 120mm fan. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. What do you think the effects of a 120mm fan on the top of my case are gunna be?

Any aesthetic issues or cooling issues I should be worrying about?

How about ideas for the other three grilles?

I mean I was thinking that you could probably build a omputer in a speaker box... but the cooling on that would probably suck unless you modded out the speaker box pretty hardcore. Has possibilities though..... *strokes chin*

On that note anyone know where I can get an 120mm fan that glows purple in some way? Mayhaps the strategic use of Lazer leds.. or jsut a couple of CCFLs and a clear fan.... hmmmmmm....

Neat. Now I just have to make sure there's suitable clearance in the case.

If I get the big blowhole can I put all my other fans to intake?
