Over the weekend I saw a post with a photograph of a very nice HT set-up. The cabinet for the HT gear featured cherry trim, mostly oriented horizontally. I would like to test the WAF of such a design but sadly I've been unable to re-trace my footsteps and find the right thread, post, and photograph. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Could it be the pic in post #7 of this thread?

That's the one! Thanks, Shadow. Very tasteful, especially with the matching speakers. I think I might be able to use this to get approval for my next round of speaker-building as long as it seems like a natural progression from an appropriate piece of furniture!Comment

I did the same thing. I showed my wife the pic. She saw all the other pics & then preferred this one. More of a classical design which she loves.
Good luck, Martyn

Yes, I prefer cherry wood on many furniture items too. Both of my Salamander A/V racks are cherry, and the one in my bedroom also has side panels and a cherry door that makes it look even better. You can search here in forums for my equipment rack pictures.

His mother is a woodworker and is finishing a new cabinet for him in cherry for the new basement. This friend and I built a couple pairs of... -
Hi Everyone,
I have a large cabinet with all my equipment in it and the T.V. is in the middle of it all. The HTM1 is above the T.V. which is about two meters of the floor but, around less than half a meter above the T.V.
I therefore tilted the HTM1 downwards with a One Inch piece... -
I just want to show what can be done for those of us with nowhere to work on building cabinets from scratch. I've been doing this on my kitchen floor and the back porch.
These cabs started life as Wharfedale Emerald 87's. It's a 2.5 way, the cab was decently well constructed with... -
I've been looking at some used b&w speakers and noticed on a few that the finish had faded everywhere but where the grill covered. This made me think I should maybe just stay with black even though it's not what I prefer.
Is this just a natural problem that will happen with any real...
