Hey folks, @lupp5214 is the real deal. I have been to his house. Kind, courteous, helpful and best of all great gear at even better prices. Everything has a box, because it is all like new. Couple of months out of the box with ultra low hours on this stuff. Really recent purchases on amazing Klipsch speakers. Do not allow distance dissuade you from contacting him. Believe me, if you want to make a deal, this is the place to be. Members if you need some assistance in purchasing and you think I may be some help send me a PM! These items are still available: RF 7iii pair - $1800 RP 600M pair - $300 RP 600M pair - $300 RC 64iii - $800 Integra 2 channel amp $200 Put together a package for an even better deal!

Running into the same problem myself. I have recently been collecting as many titles as I can get my hands on. Physical media is dying "so they say". Some manufactures have stopped making players. I see how Best Buy and certain Walmarts continue to reduce the number of shelves dedicated to physical media. It all just makes me not want to loose out. When they are out of print, they get real hard to find. Right now I am using 2 racks mounted to 1000LB lazy susan bearings. They fit nice into the closet. Unfortunately the same closet I plan to place the new audio rack. Maybe not immediately, but eventually that is the plan.

.

Glazing is done. Next up is grain filling followed by 2 topcoats.

Don't worry. I will get to that part. Not there yet. This is a different kind of build. Not going with traditional joinery because of the 1-3/4" x 18" material I am using. Wood joinery with these materials would not hold up to the 800LB rating I am shooting for. Thinking I may come in at around 200LBS in rack alone, so I want the 250LBS each casters to be the limiting factor. Brute strength and overkill on this one. The major components will all be mechanical connections. For starters I am going with 3/8" x 6" T-50 washer head lag screws to provide support along the y and z axis. https://www.amazon.com/GRK-RSS386HP-HandyPak-Structural-Package/dp/B001SFT0T8 Later after some further assembly, I will be painting and installing THESE to provide some of the structural integrity along the width. It is an open front and back design, so the x axis will be the weakest and require the most structural support.

Now on to some of the glazing. This step will greatly accentuate and contrast the early wood (dark grain) from late wood (light grain). This duplicates a finish you may have heard of before: Mission, Arts and Crafts, or Craftsman style. Only working the shelf surfaces and shelf supports for now. After assembly more glazing will be worked in to bring the trim and structure in line with the overall design. General Finishes Van Dyke Brown with 10% General Finishes Extender to increase the working time.

Trim is also pre-finished. Helps speed things up. There will be time for touch-up steps later.

Too add tone, depth, and fill some of the grain I added a 2 coats of Zinsser Amber Shellac. Unfortunately the Topcoat may not bond well with the wax in the Amber shellac, so on goes a coat of Zinsser SealCoat cut down from 2LB in the can to a 1LB cut washcoat. Locking in that wax beneath bonded layers of shellac is a non-issue now. Do not worry about that natural semi-gloss look of the shellac. That sheen will all go away as more finish layers are added on top. The final topcoat will ultimately determine the sheen anyway.

Color is not where I want it. Going with a second coat with a little longer soak before wiping.

These ideas always seem to start out simple. Then over time as things progress I decide to add more and more time effort and money into the original basic plan I started with. With this build I had some oak boards left over that I wanted to use up, some 1 3/4" x 18" oak, some casters that could be salvaged for the build, some finish products and various supplies. Well. I am using some of that, however I stuffed another $400 into the build so far and I still have yet to turn a screw. Far beyond the original simple idea. Here is the progress I have made to this point. Design - still tweeking Cut list - cut and sanded and adding additional pieces as I go Material list - keeps growing along with the budget Shopping list - God this stuff ain't cheap Cut and sanded to 180 grit Wetted with distilled water and dried overnight to pre-raise the grain re-sanded again to 180 grit Blow off sawdust Router shelf noses with 1/4" bead top and bottom for a custom look ' Mixed 2 parts General Finishes amber water based dye stain 1 part General Finishes Rosewood water based stain

My recent activity involving keeping boxes

All of this is in great gratitude to @lupp5214 for making this possible 😁 Levi is so kind, courteous, helpful, and best of all has awesome gear at even better prices! 👍 Don't forget to look at his garage page too, he is not done selling by a long shot, and I even saved the best items for you.😉 If you need assistance in purchasing logistics, I may be able to provide some help as well. Huge purchase! Technically enough gear for another entire listening space. Keep an eye out in the Garage section. I definitely will be there needing to clear some of my own space. Showstopper: Dual Monoprice Monolith 12" subwoofers Horsepower: Monoprice Monolith 7 200W x 7 amplifier Mothership: Marantz SR6012 AVR Ambiance: Pair R-41SA Dolby Atmos surround speakers Bonus 1: 12 SVS SoundPath Subwoofer Isolation Feet Bonus 2 2 5M SVS SoundPath RCA Audio Interconnect Cable EDIT: for those in the Boxes, Keep 'em? page...Everything except the AVR did include, and I did keep all of the boxes. The previous owner kept all his boxes and helped me pack everything for safe transport. I greatly appreciate the time, effort, and space that was sacrificed for what eventually became my benefit. I hope to return the favor in some future time of my life as I continue to buy/sell/trade. Now the boxes are in folded down form. The inserts are pain to store, but take up less room overall, so I will mark them for potential use later.

Best matching center for CWIII is always going to be a third Cornwall III in matching veneer placed vertically exactly center. For horizontal side placement the old vertical cornwall I. If it those choices do not match your furniture, buy new furniture.

Really? SVS PB-16 VS Klipsch RSW-15? If you think that they are even close, your room must have major issues. Also sub placement and seating position may also be in serious need of correction.

Hope you are enjoying your Labor Day! https://www.carpentersunion.org/news/respecting-celebrating-labor-day

Nice pictures. Fits the description above. The seller did come forth and give ample notice of the cosmetic issues. A higher level of skill will be required to make the veneer repairs. I am not the best SN# decoder here. I will wait for someone to else to chime in. Good luck with the sale. I am sure you will hear from others wanting info about the H II's and SW12.

Other useful information The midrange driver is a K-702 driver mounted to a K603M horn (CF3/CF4 horn with mumps)

Total of everything you have listed above is $5850. You do have the price of individual pieces listed. I am unclear on what you mean. I am wanting to purchase both subwoofers. Are you currently intending to selling these items separately for the prices listed above? I am local.

In for the dual Monolith 12's if they are the ported subs and not the sealed version. PM sent.

Maybe it is time for you to take a class on how to apply your own wood veneer. For example there are free classes around here at a store called Woodcraft. Then purchase the sub you want with the specs that suit your needs that is within your budget. Then go nuts on the veneer. Finally, sent us the pics.

edited post #1 just for you.

Back up for sale. The other speaker in the photo is a Chorus II. Not part of this sale, but would listen to an offer for the single. The mate for it is my center channel.
