The Tiger 1200W not only performs well, but it has the looks and features to match. The unit is quiet, only when the temperature hits the mid 50 degree Celsius range and fully loaded does the fan really spin up, but even then it is bearable, and by no means loud. The finish on the power supply is also great, the cables also great and I have to say, despite the added bulk of XLR type connectors, I have to say I am a fan of them.
