Handcrafted

Beneath the surface of Cinema HD’s elegant exterior lies rigid MDF

construction. Interlocking joinery maximizes the strength of the cabinet parts.

Polyester fiberfill is selected for internal damping. A sharp rap on the

enclosure will leave you with little more than bruised knuckles.

Each cabinet is impeccably finished on all exposed surfaces with select

veneers. The exquisite finish is hand-rubbed several times to assure a patina

at home with the most elegant decor.
