cabinet question

15 replies

The B and O catalog and web page show two cabinets available. A larger one and a smaller one.

What is the price of the smaller one? There is also mention of a glass front. How dark or how clear is the glass?  Is the cabinet strong enough that it could be used to house a 50-55 pound Monster Power Voltage Stabilyzer?  How many shelves come with it?

Thanks! 

 

Hi,

I've just ordered the small cabinet, £525.00 for the cabinet and £175 for the door, i got the brushed silver/aluminium look door.  I couldn't tell you about the glass but fingers crossed will get it installed this afternoon, faililng that, Thursday. Happy to post pics once done, i think there is a few shelves inside. Mine is going to house my BS3, PS3 and Sky-HD box so i'd guess minimum 3.....plus hopefully space for cables.

Thanks!   I look forward to seeing the pictures.

WOW - the one question I could have helped with and Ash beats me to it!! I would add that I ordered mine, in fact the same as Ash's over two weeks ago and I still haven't got it. My dealer told me - after I called - that the door is the problem. Perhaps another 7-10 days?

I have the small one and I’ve just ordered a Monster AVS Power Stab. I do not think is a good ideea to install your Monster inside the cabinet. The weight will have a negative effect on the wood after few months....

I had also the glass in front but after 2 weeks I replaced with the ALUn one. It's a classic and IMHO it's the perfect combination in the long term.

 

 

Thanks!  I did not realize that the cabinets were wood. We currently have the Monster and other components in a BS1 cabinet but would now like something a little smaller.

Hi Guys,

Here are some links to the new cabinet which was installed yesterday, i'm extremely happy with it!! Also a pic of my new 7-1 which fits nicely in my current tv stand, which i plan to replace with a BV4-50 in the new year....
