Deadhead Audio Cabinet

Home audio system setup with speakers, amplifier, and wooden cabinet in a living room with blue walls.

This music cabinet is crafted from Sapele, Quilted Maple, and Wenge—premium woods chosen for both their beauty and durability. Designed to house high-end audio equipment, it features full-extension, touch-latch drawer runners for smooth, handle-free access. An integrated pull-out shelf, also with a touch latch, provides a perfect platform to display the currently playing disc in the McIntosh CD player.

This Cabinet, like all of Joel’s pieces, is custom-made, giving you the freedom to personalize every detail, including size, layout, and wood selection.

Here's a follow-up from the client: like many audiophiles, he upgraded his components. Fortunately, he had the foresight to plan ahead—his custom cabinet was built rock solid to support a significantly heavier power amp. Even better, the shelf housing the CD player was built to slide out, allowing easy access to the top of the unit—something the previous component didn’t require. Smart planning pays off!!!
