Sonorous Retro 180 Lowboard, White & Glossy Black

The Sonorous Retro 180 in White & Glossy Black is a 1.8-meter-wide TV lowboard that hides your electronics behind a mirror-smooth black front.

Bottom line: white carcass, deep black front, and behind it the whole cable-and-device jumble disappears.

Why the Retro 180 White & Glossy Black?

The contrast between the matte white carcass and the high-gloss black front feels modern and calm at the same time. The front is infrared-transparent – remote control signals pass through it, so you can control your devices with the door closed.

At 1800 mm wide, there's room even for bulky AV receivers and center speakers without anything looking stacked. Rear outlets bundle the cables, and a push-to-open mechanism opens the front with a light touch – no handle marks on the gloss.

What you get

A wide lowboard with a clean black-and-white look that completely neutralizes your gear. The top plate holds up to 60 kg, so large TVs too. The interior swallows receivers, consoles, and cable clutter, and the leveling feet align the piece cleanly.

Who is the Retro 180 White & Glossy Black for?

Ideal for high-contrast, modern interiors and anyone who sees their TV as part of the living landscape. Honestly: glossy black acts like a mirror and shows every fingerprint – a soft cloth comes with the territory. If you run very heat-intensive devices, leave the door open a crack during long sessions; for normal receivers and consoles, the rear ventilation is enough.

Our verdict

The calm statement piece for the modern living room: wide, high-contrast, and tidy. If you'd rather keep your gear invisible, you won't go far wrong here.

Frequently asked questions

Do my remote controls work through the closed front?
Yes. The glossy black front is designed so infrared signals pass through it. Your devices react as if there were no obstacle between remote and sensor – the door can stay closed.

What's the best way to clean the glossy black front?
With a very soft, clean microfiber cloth and, if needed, a spritz of glass cleaner or distilled water. Avoid abrasive sponges to prevent fine scratches. The push-to-open function keeps handle marks low anyway.

How heavy can my TV be?
The top plate holds up to 60 kg, which is enough for practically any current TV. Just make sure the TV stand sits securely and centered on the plate.
