     Nowadays computer systems are no longer located under or on your desk like the used to but have also earned a place under your TV set and why not since they can perform most of the playback functions found on an entire Home Theater system and then some. Of course the main problem most of the times is not the choice of what hardware to use but which chassis will fit the best. Up until recently the market lacked the variety of cases fit for HTPC systems but thanks to Thermaltake we now have a new company in the game named Luxa2 which may change all that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

     Since the beginning of Thermaltake in 1999, they have been at the forefront of creating new and exciting products at a time where most computer users were provided little to no choices for components that may seem irrelevant, but in reality crucial to the performance of a PC.

    The first product by Luxa2 that reached our hands is the LM300 Pro, an HTPC case capable of carrying a normal ATX mainboard as opposed with most of the competitive products that require Mini-ATX form mainboards. Moving on the LM300 Pro is made by the highest quality possible materials while at the same time its amplifier-like design allows it to blend in with any TV Set. Finally the OLED screen on the front and the iMon software and remote are here to complete one of the best HTPC cases in the market as we speak.
