Is your Antec Sonata wobbly?

Post by MortySnerd » Sun Jun 29, 2003 7:28 pm

My Antec Sonata case seems to wobble a bit when placed on a hard surface. One of the four rubber feet isn't touching the surface. Is this just mine?

Nope, mine does the same thing. I solved it by placing the case on a 1/2 inch thick sheet of closed cell foam for damping. I haven't toyed with it to find the root cause yet.

Actually, I've found that what surface it's on plays a big deal. It wobbles on my kitchen table, but not some desks I have in the house. I haven't cleared off my computer desk yet so here's hoping for the best :)
