It would be cool, wouldn't it? This is from the Stereophile CES report (www.stereophile.com): http://blog.stereophile.com/ces2008/011108sp/

Yes it would!

I love the industrial look of some of the nicer new stuff, but a nice wood case makes everything look better.

I think that would be great. I know lots of folks are into the molded metal acrylic stuff but I like wood.

Accuphase makes the most beautiful equipment offered today. I was looking at there stuff about a month ago and couldnt get over just how classy they looked. Wonder how they sound?

Wonder how they sound?

glorious.

fast, transparent, musical, with a pitch black background, really. Awesome.

i've almost heard their entire gamma, that's how impressed I was...

Keep them spinning,
Bert.

What sponsor does custom cases?

I would love to buy a new Marantz 2270 wood cabinet.
