Ya, lots of stuff going on that top shelf, was going to search on the forum for that earthquake stuff that was mentioned a few weeks ago.

Beautiful !!

Earthquake stuff.


I use funtak or some call it bluetak. Works well for me.

There are two products: Quake Secure and Quake Hold.

Both were designed to prevent items from falling off shelves and other flat surfaces during earthquakes.

I currently use Quake Secure on a shelf in close proximity to my SVS 20-39 PC+ on which my wife has a collection of angels. I have all four attached to the shelf and the shelf to the wall with Quake Secure and I can literally rattle the door adjacent to the shelf with the sub but neither the shelf nor its contents move...

I believe you will find the product more than sufficient for the double bass attack you have planned.

My .02 with the product. YMMV.

1) Wow. VERY nice cabinet.
2) You need an iPod so you don't need to store all those CDs...
3) It's WAY obvious that there's no kids around 'cause that thing just screams out playground ladder. I can't fathom which would be louder at my house: the fall against the marble, the eventual screams of pain, or the waterfall sounds of CD cases being pulled from shelves.

Ah, thanks, saves me searching posts, those are the two I was thinking of, need to order a good supply, lots of stuff in the house that needs to be secured before adding the second sub.

Also, no kids in the house, but have the Bengals, which are into climbing everything they can find. LOL

Yeah, I use bluetak on my M22 stands. As well as anything on a shelf.

A couple of packages should suffice to start with...I have one package and still have about a third of it unused...and all kinds of items secured with it...

Not to mention that the shipping address for the Quake Secure is (if memory serves me right) somewhere near San Francisco so getting more should be a non-issue for you.

I tried the blue tak and although it worked okay for a while, it eventually lost its "stickiness" and worked itself loose...Never had that issue with the Quake Secure.

Again, YMMV.

Holy crap, Dennis! I gotta admit that from earlier descriptions, I couldn't visualize what you were intending to do. Even after you posted the pics of the CD units in place, though impressed by your [envy]carpentry skills[/envy], I wasn't all that impressed by the look, and couldn't figure out where the hell you were gonna put the DVD rack. But seeing, in that photo, how the DVD rack so nicely balances the CD racks, and imagining the how the oak ply on the wall, and oak trim around the window to the puter room will tie everything together, I am FLOORED by how good it's all going to look. I profoundly HATE this man!

In order to reach the top shelves, what you need to add now is one of those library ladders that, at the top of the ladder, runs along a track on the top of the cabinet, and has wheels on the bottom so you can slide it to whichever cabinet you need. Nah! For the few times you'd need to get to the top shelves, that might just be overkill.
