MOTM

IMHO the perfect gig rack for an MOTM system of that size would be a 
shallow 10U anvil rack case, with rails in the rear too for PSU 
mounting. preferably shockmounted, if you gig a lot.

IMHO the SKB case would be all right for gigging infrequently, if 
you're very careful with it. and please don't pay the new price :-)
