Title: Entertainment Center suggestions please
Post by: Mudslide on 12 May 2018, 06:20 am

I'm not sure where to put this post. 

I'm looking for recommendations for sources of decent, wood design, entertainment centers.  I can't seem to find much in my search here.

TIA.

Timbernation.  They do custom work too.  Mostly racks.

IMO the smaller the 'center' or rack the better (anything between the speakers blocks the soundstage).  In fact I use just a left over piece of shelving spiked to the floor (like a big amp stand) and it made a big soundstage improvement over a 20"x22"x 15" rack.

If you want to do custom, Odyssey Audio does racks - http://odysseyaudio.com/Odyssey-furniture.pdf

My main system rack (and matching speaker stands) was done that way

That looks nice. I have a TV I need to put on top but still a nice set up.  I also have an amp too big for my current setup so I have amp stands on each side till I figure this out...
