    Help finding a stb cabinet

    Hello all, can anyone help me find a stb cabinet. I want something perhaps like e 4 drawer cabinet at bang and Olufsen sell or sold. It does not need to be as expensive but does need to be about the same size maybe taller so I can hide away cables at the bottom and stb etc on some shelves at the top. Ay ideas I cannot find muc when I look online. Black is ok or black with aluminium Thanks all

    Took me ages to find a decent one with a BO 'feel' which is value for money. The brand is gecko

    try www.gecko-furniture.co.uk/CompanyInfo/CompanyInfo.html

    I bought the reflect rf-550 the new model has a glass top, gloss finish in different colours (white, black and walnut). I had black.

    Self assembly; for £175 you can't really argue! I bought two one for kitchen and one for living room and they are good quality imho.

    Good company tech support. I think B&O of cardiff is listed as one of their retailers!

    good luck

    I note Lifestyle are selling off the Struer Design stock - worth a look and an offer!

    Re: Help finding a stb cabinet

    Not answering your question, so apologies, but isn't it strange how the 'thing' is still referred to as a STB (set-top box)?

    With flat screens, who sits the box on top of the TV?

    Shouldn't it be called a bsb - a below set box? Or perhaps just a box.

    Just a thought!

    They cannot be stacked on top

    Another brand I thought of is

    http://www.bdiusa.com/theater/mirage_8222.shtml

    But is £1000

    The second brand is

    http://www.salamanderdesigns.com/products/av.jsp

    Again similar prices to bdi
