I took an old custom external hard drive enclosure case, some CPU heatsinks I had around the place and put together a mod for my XBOX. Wanted something to keep it quiet and cool. Aesthetically pleasing wasn't my primary goal just trying to be practical, so keep that in mind in your reviews. Something you can't tell from the pics is that the front panel is a black spray painted plexiglass that is light on the paint near the LEDs so that they show up when on, yet the front looks solid black still. Hope you enjoy.

Why do you have it sitting on your sub woofer?
 
I used a blank PCI slot cover for the retention strap on the heatsink. Cut the ends off and then drilled a couple of holes. Obviously you don't get that kind of bowed spring steel pressure going down with the soft aluminum...but if you make the holes slighter closer together then they would normally be...it will end up putting some good downward pressure on the thing.

The chips are nice and cool to the touch now. FYI, I only had it on the subwoofer while I was doing the final assembly.
