Cabinet


Happy Holidays!
I'm looking to convert an antique ice box into an equipment cabinet.
Would anyone know if the porcelain in the unit would cause any interference with my equipment?

So was the OP's question.

" Not worried about the vibration,I can work that out. I’m concerned if there would be any unwanted frequencies from the porcelain? I also have the ventilation covered."


Porcelain (ceramics), are regularly used in all kinds of electronics. Its a very good insulator. Tube sockets, cables, speakers, diodes, resistors, electrical outlets, etc. If anything, it might be beneficial. 

Just some general info.
