The Most Expensive Entertainment Center Cabinets - $8,524

Most Expensive Entertainment Center Cabinets Furniture in mass production would be the Hooker Furniture New Castle Entertainment Set. Not including any of the electronics. At only $8,524, you should be left with a little bit of change to load this stately piece of furniture with all the latest tecnology. Made of Pine, it has a rich black finish, multiple doors and cabinets, crown molding, glass shelves, and inset lighting.

The home entertainment center is a piece of Americana. Creating a large, in-home structure to hold large pieces of electronics which are put on display is something that really only appears in American homes. In a land where big is best, the most expensive entertainment center in the world certainly fits the bill.

The world’s first entertainment center that was constructed as part of a house is believed to be in the living room of the Hollyhock House in Los Angeles. Built by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1917, the cabinetry was ahead of its time – awaiting a world where televisions, stereos, game consoles, and speakers would one day find their places.

Popular in the 1980s, when large televisions and even larger stereos were the vogue, entertainment centers became a household necessity. Almost three decades later, these home entertainment centers no longer hold tape decks, record players, and large tube televisions, but DVD players, DVRs, even larger flat-screen plasma televisions, and speakers that connect to MP3 players holding thousands of songs.

A quick trip to Circuit City to complete your new entertainment center will set you back at least as much as the furniture. A Sharp 65” LCD HDTV ($8,000), a Bose home theater ($4,000), a very inexpensive Sony mini-stereo system ($700), a PlayStation 3 ($500), and an iPod ($400) to hold your tunes will $13,600. This gear, sitting in your Hooker Entertainment Set will definitely make it the most expensive entertainment center in the world.
