I just received a new case from Higbee Cases for my CTi1500 dLive console, and holy cats is it built like a tank. I believe Shane (owner of Higbee) builds any type of rack/case you might be interested in - it might be worth giving him  a call as well. He's super easy to work with, shipped incredibly fast, and pricing was in line with everything else I was getting quotes for. The quality appears to be top notch (baltic birch wood throughout).

Without your endorsement, I would move right past that site. Copyright date 2014 and this error across the top of the screen:

"Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /home/hnpn4qh6vwol/public_html/plugins/system/gantry/gantry.php on line 406"

Evidently, they're better at making cases than maintaining websites  ;) .

Was really just trying to find out in what region they were located (to judge if it'd be cost-effective to use them).

Yeah, same here. :) But he came highly recommended from my A&H/Shure/QSC reps - they all recommended him without pause. He's out in Arizona.

There's a company that bought all of Indy Case Company's tooling, the old ICC shop foreman works there, and they build the same exact cases - Streamline Cases .  From my searches it seems that they've been around for several years, so it's not like they started up out of the ashes from ICC.

I haven't purchased any yet as I just reached out a couple weeks ago, but the owner Paul was quick to respond and was confident they could match exactly what I had from ICC.

The one thing he did mention (and you should keep in mind) is that the prices quoted now many not be able to be held for long due to the price hikes in raw materials lately.  But reach out and hopefully you'll find what you're looking for.


Not to brand bash but IIRC talking to the ex-owner of Indycase he did not recondmend them, told me to go to with R&R

Owner of closed business does not recommend business who bought all his machinery and hired his people.  Maybe a little bitterness there?

That's a bummer that Indy Case is no more. I have a couple of their racks and workboxes and they're amazing. They were good people too, I hope they're off to bigger and better things.

I'm curious to see how your conversation with Streamline goes. Keep us posted!
Paul at Streamline Cases built us a pair of identical cases to what we have according to the photos he sent, as he had the original CAD files. I'm glad to have found him and will be more glad to have matching inventory. A tip of the hat to Brain Bolly for enlightening me to Paul's unique ability to match what we have.
