[Amps] Custom Cabinets for Custom Amps.

[Patrick Barthelow]

Folks:

 

While looking for cabinet solutions for a  new build amp, I came across an industrial computer rackmount cabinet in storage.  Looking further, I Googled Rackmount servers, Images and found a lot of sturdy nicely done cabinets used as/in server farms.  Various kinds, but well made, and available in industry standard rack mount heights, of increasing hieghts, indicated by industry standard 2u, 3u, 4u, etc. 

Here is an example site with pictures and speficiations of various size industrial rack cabinets.

I wonder if there are surplus/recycle streams of surplus cabinets anyhere that could be tapped for a surplus purchase, for use as an amp cabinet.  Do these kinds of cabinets get surplussed out with server farm site equipment changes or upgrades?

Best Regards,
