Crazy idea of the week - return of the music centre

Fed up having to buy expensive cases? Yes

Fed up with having space constraints within cases? Yes, yes, yes

Fed up with all the wasted space on your rack? Yes

Fed up with wife complaining about "all the boxes" ? Yes

How about the return of the music centre?

Firstly get a few sheets of substantial sheet aluminum - eg 600mm x 450mm

Put a front and rear panel on

Arrange all your lovely components with no height constraints

CD + psu's on one shelf, preamp +psu's on another, poweramp on another

Get a nice wood working person to make a cabinet that will take the aluminum sheets and space the shelves 200mm or so. Arrange all front panels needed at the front and get said wood working person to make a front panel which goes top to bottom and has holes just big enough to expose the parts of the equipment front panels that you need access to eg control knobs, power switches, CD player front controls etc. Turntable sits on a spiked shelf (level adjustable) on top of the cabinet. Whole thing on castors. The aluminum sheets are pulled out from the back to dick about with them. Ventilation added where required (sides, back and top), power amps have lovely finned heat sinks added.

Voila, a lovely 'music centre'.

There are more considerations but i could go on forever.

I am seriously putting this idea into action.
