StudioTech Ultra U-22T Component Cabinet
The StudioTech Ultra U-22T furniture is a high performance piece of A/V furniture. The wire management is a snap, ventilation is more than adequate, set up is a breeze, and the options are plentiful. Above all, the price is right. You can get into one of these cabinets for a reasonable amount and have something that will last you years.

StudioTech DP-2 Flat Panel TV Stand Review
When you get that piece of upgraded equipment you’ve always wanted there’s typically that follow-up feeling of “man that makes my old furniture look really bad!” StudioTech is no stranger to Audioholics, and we were able to take a closer look at their DP-2 line of AV component racks. This stand works well in a corner, but also looks great when placed against a flat wall. When we took a quick peek at the specs it surprised us in that it seemed to be very “roomy” for equipment but maintained a low profile that didn’t dominate the room.

You've already purchased your front projection system and all your components, and now you're left with a daunting task. How do you mount the projector, without hearing an earful from your significant other; or in this case, in a conference room with a commercial drop-ceiling? Many mounts and stands can be not-so-appealing to the female eye, such as a pole dropping from the ceiling, a stand behind the couch, or a box sitting on the conference room table. You ask yourself: does visual perfection really have to come at such a price?
Home theater chairs are the finishing polish on a room that really makes an impact. While a good audio and video system is imperative to a quality experience, having a good set of leather chairs will really make a big splash on your guests. They really differentiate the dedicated rooms from those who simply shove a bunch of gear into a room. But what about replacing the typical high-end home theater chair with a massage chair from Human Touch? The possibilities are endless. For roughly the same price as a high-end custom chair you can have a robotic masseuse at your fingertips… now that's something to consider.
For those wishing to integrate a home theater system into their family or living room and are mindful of blending it into their room décor, the Majestic Angle e5822 from StandOut Designs may be the product for you. Its construction and quality of materials are light years beyond much of the run of the mill junk you find at department stores. The Angle comes fully assembled and gives you the option of placing itself under your wall mounted display or placing your display on top of it. It was actually designed to accommodate real A/V gear and not the pretend cardboard box cuts outs that are often shown on the display floor. Considering the thoughtfulness of design that went into making this product a truly dedicated A/V furniture rack and the fact that it’s not only affordable but made in the USA, means it gets my highest recommendation!
When you purchase a flat panel the biggest travesty (in my humble opinion) is to set it on a piece of furniture as if it is business as usual. With today's available inventory of flat panel TV wall mounts, it's insane to not want to place these beautiful masterpieces of technology up on the wall where they belong. And if you have an even newer flat panel display that is less than two inches in thickness, why not try to get that TV right up against the wall and as flat as it can be? With the Peerless IM760 series you can. It allows installation of a full swing arm mount within the stud cavity of your wall, enabling you to recess that cables, swing arm and mount so that it is quite literally flush against your wall. Seeing is believing.
The Sanus System CFA56 is quite a substantial piece of furniture. You definitely will feel like you got your $850 out of it. It is heavy, has built in "convection-style" cooling, easy access to your gear from the removable back panel, and bottom exit of wires. It is easily put together by a single person though it is not the easiest piece of furniture you'll ever assemble. The aesthetics are very good with a fairly high quality vinyl wrap over some quality pieces of MDF.
Face it, when people call you to talk about their great home theater or 2-channel audio room they just set up, they rarely tell you about the piece of furniture they store all their gear on. In fact, most of the rooms I help folks set up use either an old piece of furniture or some other make-shift AV stand and sink all their AV budget into their gear. While I certainly understand wanting to get the best gear for your money, I have found that having a high quality AV stand to store your gear in can be the finishing touch that takes the room from the "man room in the basement" to the family theater that you or your spouse will be proud to include on the home tour next time guests are over. Not to mention that stands like the NFA245 are designed to not only look great, but to also help ensure that gear is in optimum operating conditions that will prolong the life of your equipment and improve its performance.
Sanus Systems displayed three new models in its AV Foundations Natural series. These included the NFV249 three-shelf AV lowboy, the four-shelf AV stand and the NFA245 five-shelf audio stand. All units incorporate three new Sanus colors and thick, smoked tempered glass shelves.
Da-Lite's new Da-Lift Pivot motorized projector lift is engineered with a fixed pivot point that drops a projector down from a hidden drywall or drop-ceiling location. Because of its precision design, the Da-Lift Pivot insures proper alignment during and after installation. The Pivot comes complete with an Advance UPM-1 Universal Projector mount and a unique internally mounted low voltage control unit with switch to make installation adjustments easy.
Bell’O showed off several new AV furniture products at CES this year. I've found them to make a nice range of inexpensive to premium furniture to cover a wide range of tastes. The FP-4858 Triple Play A/V Flat-Panel Stand is a beautiful corner-oriented AV stand that provides three options for use with a flat panel TV. You can display the TV on the top shelf of the stand itself; on the swivel pole mounting system above the stand; or on the wall itself with the stand below it as a shelf table.
When you decide to go with a front projection system you then have the challenging task of locating the best mounting system. Mounting systems can be simple. They can also be manufacturer-specific and particularly suited to the exact projector you own. But as we all know, it's only a matter of time before the upgrade bug hits and you may find yourself seeking out another model. It's because of this that solutions like the Peerless Industries PRG-UNV exist.
