Hardshell case for Temple Audio solo18 with QC

Hi just looking into this as I’ve been considering the Nanuk as it’s so much cheaper. When you place it the right way up, is the lid depth not enough to fit still even on top of the wheel well?

I assume you are talking about the Nanuk 935? I bought a Nanuk 935, 940, and 950. I ended up keeping the 940 and returned the other two. I still have second thoughts thinking I should have kept the 935… I probably could have made it work, and the 940, when fully loaded, is really heavy (no wheels). The 950 was way too big, like a giant suitcase.

I attached some comparison photos in my prior post above. With the 935, the SOLO18 board sits nicely down in between the handle/wheel cut-outs if you place it in upside down. Unfortunately, I did not capture a photo upright. I was able to close the lid with the SOLO18 board upright, but the bottom was touching the handle/wheel cut-outs. It probably would have been fine, and I could have used some adhesive rubber to cushion the inside of the case. As long as you order from a reputable seller, and you don’t cut the foam, you can return it if you don’t like the fit.

If you are interested, I attached CAD/STEP files of the 935 case that Nanuk support shared. You can open them in a free STEP file view and play around with various internal measurements.

hey did you get the 940? does it fit?=

Yes, I ended up getting the 940 with a padded divider (see photo). It fits well with the Solo 18 and gives me space for additional gear (the two pouches in the front) and cables underneath the unit. The unit is padded on all sides and not touching the outer shell. My only complaint is that it is pretty heavy when fully loaded and awkward to carry, even with the padded shoulder strap.
