Desktop chassis target high-end hi-fi equipment
Hammond Electronics
1444CWW/1441CWW desktop chassis
Hammond Electronics is offering two new ranges of desktop chassis for high-end hi-fi equipment, consumer-facing products where appearance is as important as function and retro-styled instrumentation.
The HWCAS consists of a complete walnut frame fitted with aluminium top and optional base panels, available with either a black powder coat or natural finish.
The 1444CWW and 1441CWW ranges are fabricated from aluminium or steel respectively, fitted with walnut end panels to the shorter sides.
The aluminium version has a natural finish; the steel has a black powder coat finish.
The HWCAS is available in two sizes, either 330 x 254 x 76mm or 432 x 254 x 76mm.
The chassis corners are of dovetailed construction, reinforced with corner posts fitted with brass inserts to take the panel fixings.
The 2mm-thick top panel will support heavy components such as transformers without bowing.
The 1444 and 1441CWW units come in six sizes ranging from 178 x 127 x 51mm to 432 x 254 x 102mm.
The rigid chassis is spot welded for strength and rigidity, and is complete with an integral top panel, so there are no visible fixings to mar the sleek appearance.
