Anna white has TONS of plans online for free. I have made a desk, dining table and bench, and bunk beds using her plans. Very thorough, and I have just learned as I go. You would probably have to mod one some for your components so might not be a good idea for a beginner however...

I got into woodwork about 4 or 5 years ago when I wanted a new TV stand for my LCD
I've learned in the last few years, using the Anna White site has helped a lot http://www.ana-white.com/ I built a TV wall mount stand for my kids room with plans from her site.
Over about two years I did sketches of what I would really like in a TV stand. I only did rough sketches and knowing what I wanted to get done.
My current stand took about two weeks to complete. A afternoon to cut and prefit. Then it was stain and top coat. This stand took 1&1/2 sheet of 18mm, 1/2 sheet of 12mm and 3/4 sheet of 6mm Baltic Birch. I use the 5'X5' sheets. It's 60" long 20" deep and 26" tall. I just did rough sketch of what I wanted to do.
Here it is when first completed, see I did own RTi
If you don't have the tools or able to borrow some, check with a local high school see if they still have a wood shop. They might make it a class project. On Anna site there is a link at the bottom for Pine+Main, local woodworkers in your area doing side gigs.
When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

Those look fantastic. You have inspired me to pursue this further. There is even a Woodcraft of Austin up the road which gives woodworking classes. I just lack any kinds of saws but could fix. Also looking at Pine+Main thank you! -

Loren, please update your pic to show the picture of the S60s in the second to last picture. That way we don't see those stupid red signs on your speakers!
Thank you for your cooperation!

If your going to get into woodworking look at CraigsList for tools, Some things at Harbor Freight are worth it like Routers, Orbital sanders and clamps. Do not skimp on saw blades or router bits. Remember YouTube can be your friend too. Lumber, I tend to stay away from big box stores. local lumber and hardwood stores have a much better quality of wood and the staff knows what they are doing.When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.
