>Does anyone have advice on building a quiet frontend?

Put your noisy beast out in your garage as your backend and buy a shiny new
shuttle and use it as your frontend...

It doesn't need much horsepower as your box in the garage will do all the
grunter work.

Minimal noise and nice size.
There are other home brew cases around that might cost a bit more but look
just like a component in your av system but they probably won't be much
quieter than a shuttle.

Even better, boot over the network from your backend to make your frontend
diskless.

Cheers
Toby
