Any votes for or against a TV component stand with glass shelves?


The TV will likely be a 55 inch screen.  The audio components will be a Blue Sound Vault 2, Manley preamp, W4S amp, along with the cable box.

 I currently have a custom made wood cabinet which looks and sounds good in my current residence.  I now have a new summer home, and trying to decide whether to go with a sleek looking ready made unit or spend the extra time and money for another custom unit.

Your input would be appreciated.

Unless you are sold on the looks of the stand with glass shelves I'd opt for the wooden shelves. I agree with what others said, there are ways to counter the glass shelves and still sound pretty good.
Remember this is a summer home to relax in, I doubt that you are going to have your reference sound system there to do critical listening?
Better make sure the wife is happy with whatever the decission is ;-)
