looking for a HTPC case

My memory sucks, I forgot to link it and my Googling skills are very bad. Any ways a friend wants me to build him a HTPC, I know a billion cases exist but this was seemed extra nice. Here is what I remember about it.

From the few pictures it looked very slim, I want to say BluRay player, might be quitr a bit thicker but it looked crazy small. It was black with silver accents and it could fit a DVD drive from a notebook. with a few buttons and a volume knob on the front. At the time it struck me as "wow!" but stupid me I forgot to bookmark it. I spent the last 2 hours looking at HTPC cases all over online and none of them have been this one, and none are popping out at me like it did either. It came with a pretty nice looking remote too, looked a lot like the iMon one. I thought it was either a Thermaltake or Antec but I obviously thought wrong 🙁

A looong shot maybe, but anyone know what the hell I'm talking about
 
no neither of those, I looked at all the cases on Newegg. It was was thinner and could have passed for a standalone DVD player. It also only took laptop DVD drives to save space.
 
no that's not it, that's actually a nice looking one, saw a review yeterday but froogle is turning up no results for buying it. I'm starting to think I won't ever find the one I saw lol. The rest I'm seeing aren't really that eye catching. Silverstone has a couple nice ones but they take some funky smaller than MATX MB's.
 
Omaura had really nice ones, too bad they went out of business. Origen AE and modu also have nice ones.

The only other one I can think of is the Moneual 312.
 
zero - the baddest one I saw was 450 bucks, came with a slot load dvd. This guy wants a Blu-Ray drive though. I took a nap and woke up refreshed and vowed to find the one I know I saw a few weeks ago. lol
I thino the Modu is going to be what I suggest if he gets impatient while I try to find this one I told him about. They're kind of pricy for having no PSU included but very elegant and non PC case looking.
 
Well I found an amazing HTPC case, only problem is the only site I can find it on is OOS and the manufactures site doesn't even list it as a model. I dunno if it's old and discontinued or just too new. I can't find info on it on Google at all.
Moneual Moncaso 312

might be the best looking case I've come across, of course it's OOS and probably no longer made *siiigh* lol if anyone knows about it I'm all ears.
