Today we will be reviewing the Nexus Voltinia Tranquility PRO Series Case but first a little bit about the company.

Their business was founded in 1996 as a local custom build computer store. A few years later in 1999 their focus changed to specialty high quality quiet computer systems, and quiet computer parts, which are sent worldwide. Their team of technical support staff provides high quality personal phone and email support for all systems and parts sold. Their company philosophy is to have a focus on the quality of their systems with careful and meticulous attention to all details of the assembly and design of each individual system. They are completely unique in the market- they build award winning Quiet PCs, and because of this, they are also able to provide expert help to do-it-yourselfers who are purchasing and using the same quiet pc parts.

Now with that little blurb out of the way, lets start looking at this silent case and first up is the specifications and features.
