Magnetic wooden cladding for hi-fi amplifiers
Dear Sir or Madam,
In the late 80s and early 90s, hi-fi companies like Luxman, Denon, Sony, and Accuphase often attached wooden side panels to their high-end equipment. Unfortunately, this luxury is no longer found today.
Since I wanted to visually enhance my Denon amplifier with these wooden panels, but didn't want the hassle of screwing them on, I first covered perfectly cut MDF side panels with veneer.
Next, I drilled a number of countersinks on the inside (at that point, I didn't yet know how many I would need) and inserted the cube magnet 8.0 x 8.0 x 8.0 mm N45 Gold - holds 4.5 kg into them.
Glue wasn't necessary, as I was able to tap them firmly and securely into the grooves with a small rubber mallet. Then, all I had to do was attach and align the wooden side panels to the amplifier – done.
I think it looks very high-quality, and I saved a lot of time and hassle because I didn't have to drill holes for through screws that might have damaged the veneer.
