Technology products like TV sets and audio systems from the 60s and 70s were characterized by their large design that incorporated the components into furniture pieces, which is something the Slab Audio Console takes in stride.
The audio unit looks like a vintage console from the past, but incorporates some of the latest audio technology including a 500W internal amp, 12-inch subwoofer, 6.5-inch Focal coaxial speakers with Kevlar cones and more. The system also features a magnetic grille crafted with aluminum and acoustically transparent fabric that will hide the front components from view without obstructing functionality.
The Slab Audio Console comes in real wood finishes including birch or walnut, is hand-assembled to ensure the utmost attention to detail and is priced at $6,995.
