Fantastic video! You make excellent points and provide ideas for our own media room remodel. Unfortunately, neither BDi nor Salamander make a deep enough cabinet for my Aventage A8. So, I have commissioned a cabinetry carpenter to make a custom floating cabinet for me.

[@aldizzle]

Thank you for your review. I have been fascinated with BDI products for awhile now. This is an awesome review. So appreciated!!

[@mchambliss2]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@deebee77]

Thank you for this review. I’ve been eyeing the 8173 or 8179.

[@russellbrown5531]

Thanks; awesome video for the BDI; looking to buy and this definitely sold me

[@bdifurniture]

Thank you for your thorough review, Max! We hope that you are getting great enjoyment out of your Corridor 8179 from BDI.

[@mchambliss2]

Thank you for the kind words

[@jaybirdius]

Does this unit fit full size receivers, such as the Onkyo RX50 and Denon AVH-X3800? Thanks!

[@shamarlawrence9429]

BDI is amazing, I was going to buy Corridor 8179 but I'm going to purchase Element Ricochet for Sony Z9J 85in, I own BDI Ola 8137 & BDI Cavo 8168, I can't speak enough about the quality of BDI, it's a commitment similar to my equipment that speaks to excellence, build quality, functional, sleek, thank you for sharing your experience with BDI Corridor, you are looking like you have a winner of a project!!

[@mchambliss2]

Shamar!!!!! I see you everywhere in the KZbin space. Thank you for watching my video :) I had to join the BDI bandwagon :) I absolutely love this piece of furniture because it helps vent all of my electronics and gives me space to store all my items. When you get the Z9J, please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks for sharing. I'm in the same boat and was looking for some unboxing videos and this was perfect. , where the Doors easy to adjust

[@mchambliss2]

Yes, it was pretty easy to adjust. BDI provides a tool to make it easy.

One heck of an AV cabinet. What a masterpiece

Thank you 🙏🏾

Thank you 😊

[@worldofjc]

Nice video!! Any regrets on not going with the taller version 8179 or the color version? I’m leaning towards this 8173 charcoal version as well.

[@REZZA2020]

Thank you.

[@XeeDooX]

This is a great piece of furniture. What is the thickness of the horizontal wood pieces and the gap between them ? Thanks.

[@rodneydangerfield7153]

Thanks, Max, for the well-narrated, informative video!...How did you decide to purchase the 8173 as opposed to 8179? Just curious...

[@mchambliss2]

Thank you :) I went with the 8173 compared to 8179 because the 8173 is a lower profile where I want it to sit lower. The height is 21 in compared to the 8179 stands that are 28.25 in. My basement doesn't have high ceilings, and I wanted to give the illusion that the ceilings are higher. I hope this helps :)

[@rodneydangerfield7153]

@@mchambliss2 Hi Max...Enjoying my 77" Sony A80J TV sitting on the beautiful BDI Corridor 8179 TV stand....Question: Will the Sonos Arc soundbar (45"L x 4.5"D x 3.5"H) fit on the top of the stand with only 4" in front of 16" TV feet?...Thanks in advance!

[@Rapid_GT]

Is there any differences between the 8173 and 8179 ?, I just bought the 8179 ex-demo and the dimensions and everything you described seems identical, i'm guessing there's some detailed difference, nice review cheers, looking forward to getting mine, it's great that there's no flat pack to put together haha

[@titoboll]

Nice review. Is the shelve in the middle part height adjustable? Thank you.

[@mchambliss2]

Yes, the shelves are adjustable 😁

[@Waitaminutesilly]

Do you know if the center back panel can be removed? Nice video by the way, really helpful.

[@mchambliss2]

The center back is not removable, unfortunately. Thank you 🙏🏾 for the kind words.

[@gmartin0312]

Two questions, the center compartment, how tall of a speaker can you fit in there? From what I understand the shelf is adjustable but, how adjustable is it, can the shelf be removed? #2 can this be setup without the metal stands, as in just laid flat on the floor, to make it more low profile? Thanks!

[@mchambliss2]

Center Compartment Interior Dimensions 13H x 38W x 15.75D in Adjustable Shelf Increments 1.25 in; 3 positions Yes, the shelf can be removed, and yes, you can remove the metal stand portion to give a lower profile. However, by doing that, you will lose some of the ventilation by doing that.

[@ScubaDiverPicker]

How do you adjust the out of aligned doors?

[@yayankee1]

Where did you purcahse? All furniture stores by me include installation and delivery...all costing more for an already very expensive Media console. Great video BTW.

[@mchambliss2]

Best Buy. I would go to the Magnolia center and they would be able to order it for you.

[@waltvancourt5052]

What was the shipping time , whats your state and did the glass top come in a separate box ? Thanks

[@PowerNapMan]

Would love to get the Corridor but it’s close to impossible to get one in Germany :/

[@mchambliss2]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[@user-gs4oi1fm4l]

How big was your AVR? Mine measures 21" wide and 18" deep and so im concerned it won't fit within the cabinet

[@TheJediBendu]

What size of TV do you have above it? I'd like to get an 85" with this, but my concern is because this is too tall it may force the TV to sit a bit too high

[@mchambliss2]

I am going to pick the 83 inch. I haven't decided if I'm going to get a Sony or LG.

[@TheJediBendu]

@@mchambliss2 Nice! Would love to head your thoughts on height once you've got yours picked out and all set up!

[@grapeshot23]

What is the black inner chassis made of? Like the part the base, top, and doors are attached to?

[@mchambliss2]

black steel base for the inner chassis. Everything is assembled except for the doors and the top etched glass.

[@bs1820]

Anyone paying 3k plus for a tv stand better get white glove delivery. I bought this exact unit from crutchfield and delivery included them putting it together.

[@guillermomartin8248]

Can you set it up without the legs? It might be too high for me with the legs…

[@mchambliss2]

I wouldn't. The bottom console has multiple air vents and if you don't install the legs to it you will lose airflow in the cabinets.

[@dangy785]

Has anyone talked about the sound bar inside?? Does it interfere with sound at all? Any issues?

[@akasinned52]

as long as the soundbar does not have up-firing speakers you should be ok. if upfiring then I suggest you place it on top of stand.

[@lounv]

Dude, dump those lights that are reflexing off your glasses. Looks really bad.

[@deriklarsen]

The glass is installed upside down

[@bdifurniture]

Actually, the satin-etched side of the glass is supposed to face up, so it is installed the correct way. This unique glass is resistant to scratches and scuffs, forgiving of fingerprints and dust, and provides a low sheen basis for the TV.
