Where is the attractive audio furniture?

Just bought a place, and am doing the mid-century thing. In seeking a suitable audio cabinet that not only fit aesthetically, and doesn't look like Audio Gear, it was complex. I came across the Grid cabinet at CB2, and had to drill about 47 holes in it for convection cooling of the amplifiers.

But does anyone know of any style-conscious, audio-friendly furniture? I couldn't find a thing.

If you want period correct furniture you'll have to buy used. Google Barzilay. Their stuff shows up frequently on eBay and Craigslist.

Charles and Ray Eames designed cabinets that might work, and Herman Miller has reissued their George Nelson line. Both are classic mid-century designs. However, I agree with Lapierre, you may have to go to a custom design to get everything that you want.

DWR has an appealing cabinet called the Line Media Console 70. The smaller Line Media Console 35 of half the size is also available. Personally I think they are both very attractive but the design specifics may not optimally match your particular needs.

Finite Elemente racks are not mid-century, but they fit well in modern decor. They are also audio performance oriented and I think one of the best looking "hifi" racks made.

Keep in mind audiofreakgeek is a dealer for the product line he recommended.

An ethical dealer would have made a disclosure.
