  • Easy to run wires
  • Bottom exit of wires makes placing near wall easy

Cons

  • No easy way to move to get behind to access gear
  • Top and door need dampening
  • Some fit and finish issues

Introduction

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.
