X32 is finally protected!
I bought this case as part of the X32 case bundle when the X32 was first released. I wanted a lightweight case that protected the X32 during transit and handling. The foam protection in this case is fairly minimal. The quality and finish is okay. In short, this is the right product for me assuming that I'm not going to be throwing my console around on tour. If I was going to dry hire the console out, I would have gone for a more sturdy case with better foam protection. So overall, no complaints and a great price from Thomann.
The case is big enough to perfectly fit the X32 inside and leave a generous gap at the back for storing accessories (I store a WiFi router in there along with a goose neck LED lamp, the power cable and a short jack cable for connecting my iPod to the desk aux inputs. The gap protects the cables when you have members of the audience that may back into the case when it's in a front of house location.
The case doesn't have a dog box but then, I didn't really feel the need for one and that would have put the price up significantly. I'm very happy with the case from a price / quality balance but if you're hiring out your console to other people whom you cannot trust to handle your gear with respect, I would perhaps go for a better quality, more expensive case.

Flightcase for Behringer X32
Good
i) Low cost compared to other flight cases that I researched in the UK if bought with the X32 mixer as a package.
ii) The dimensions especially where the back of the mixer sits. Although it doesn't have a dog box there is plenty of room to keep the cables tidy.
iii) The foam which the mixer sits on allows the passage of air under the mixer and doesn't obstruct the fan keeping the mixer cool.
Bad
i) Made from veneered plywood which lends itself to being easily scratched. Obviously this keeps the cost down as supposed to using hexi-board.
ii) Not enough foam inside to prevent the mixer from moving about inside. You can hear it "flopping about" when lifting it onto its side.
Other Notes.
i) Over small distances I'm able to lift and carry the case with the mixer installed. Over longer distances 2 people are better for carrying or a "dolly truck is required"

Does what its meant to but....
As always great build but could do with more foam to stop the desk moving if you hit a bump or tilt desk. 3/4 shows a week and not a single damaged button or scratch on the desk. If you are a one man operation you should get one with wheels. This case will last the life time of the desk and beyond.

Good Value protection for your X32
Having bought an X32 we needed a case. There were many choices but also major cost differences. We bought this based on price. It may not have all the features and cutouts but it's half the price of some others. It did arrive with a very small dent on one edge - not a Thomann problem, it will get more in the future, so no worries. Could do with a central handle as you could move it short distances on your own, but this needs two people to move it. Foam in all the right places, space at the back for cables. Good Value.

Solid Case
The case is solid and does what it is suppose to do, it also fitted the desk perfectly with lots for room for accessories like headphones extra at the back when its closed
