Clic Classic Series Model 23

The Classic Series Model 23 by Clic is an audio-video cabinet designed according to Scandinavian design principles, prioritizing functional and compact integration. It measures 152.2 cm wide and 26.5 cm deep, fitting into tight spaces while offering solutions suited to contemporary hi-fi setups.

A technical design engineered for absolute stability

The Model 23’s structure is based on an exclusive construction technique developed by Clic, achieving a perfectly stable chassis without a fixed back panel. This technical feat, the result of two decades of refinement since 1999, gives the cabinet remarkable load capacity despite its slender profile.

The cabinet is divided into three equal compartments, each 482 mm wide, all equipped with a shelf adjustable to three positions and magnetic rear plates. This modular configuration allows you to tailor the interior layout to the dimensions of your amplifiers, CD players, turntables, or game consoles.

Internal dimensions vary slightly depending on the chosen configuration. For models with doors, usable depth reaches 183.5 mm, while without a rear plate it extends to 238 mm. The constant internal height of 322 mm comfortably accommodates most current hi-fi components.

A sophisticated cable management system

The Model 23 features a central cable pass-through in the top panel, with the option to order up to three pass-throughs, one above each compartment. This flexibility allows you to organize cabling according to your device layout, avoiding the usual tangle behind AV installations.

The magnetic rear plates, positioned 5 cm from the wall, create a dedicated space for cable routing. These plates, easily removable from the front of the cabinet, have pre-drilled openings for cabling, but can be ordered without holes for later customization. Painted aluminum raceways, available in two sizes, elegantly conceal the cables connecting the cabinet to a wall-mounted screen.

Handcrafted finishes for perfect integration

Each Model 23 is hand-painted after assembly, using a durable, water-based paint. This artisanal technique ensures perfectly crisp edges and invisible joints—hallmarks of Clic quality.

The choice of finishes reflects a keen eye for visual harmony. Paints—white, black, gray, and light gray—provide a neutral base suited to any interior. Oak or walnut veneers add natural warmth, while the ten fabric door colors offer extensive customization: from deep charcoal to pristine white, including coffee, frost, dark blue, concrete, latte, basalt gray, and olive green.

The fabric doors offer a notable acoustic advantage, allowing speakers or game consoles to be concealed without compromising sound transmission. This elegant solution maintains a clean aesthetic while preserving audio performance.

Exclusive wall mounting for small spaces

Unlike deeper models, the Model 23 cannot be mounted on aluminum feet or casters, as it is specifically designed for wall mounting. This characteristic reinforces its positioning as an ideal solution for compact spaces, freeing up floor area while creating a sense of visual lightness.

The Clic wall bracket enables a flush mount against the wall, with the possibility of level adjustment. This clean installation contributes to the minimalist aesthetic sought by fans of Scandinavian design.

Frequently asked questions

Can the Model 23 support the weight of heavy hi-fi equipment like Class A amplifiers?

Despite its shallow depth, the Model 23 uses a special construction technique that gives it high stability and load capacity. The structure can easily support amplifiers, turntables, and other heavy equipment. However, for very heavy loads, it is recommended to distribute the weight across the three compartments and ensure solid wall anchoring.

Is it possible to integrate a soundbar into the Model 23?

The standard Model 23 is not suitable for housing a soundbar inside the compartments. Only the S versions in the Clic range allow this integration. Nevertheless, a soundbar can be placed above or below the cabinet depending on your wall configuration.

How does the magnetic rear plate system work?

The rear plates attach magnetically 5 cm from the back of the cabinet, creating space for cabling. They are easily removable from the front to access connections or modify the setup. This design allows you to use the full depth of the cabinet if needed, simply by removing the plates.

Can the shelves support heavy equipment like turntables?

With a thickness of 16 mm and three possible adjustment positions, the shelves are designed to support substantial loads. For particularly heavy equipment, it is advisable to place them on the base of the compartment rather than on the shelf to maximize stability.

Can multiple Model 23 units be combined to create a wider setup?

Although the Model 23 cannot be stacked vertically with magnetic feet like other Clic models due to its shallow depth, multiple units can be mounted side by side on a wall to create an extended modular installation. This configuration lets you adapt storage space as your hi-fi system evolves.

What is the difference between wooden and fabric doors in terms of acoustics?

Wooden doors provide complete visual concealment but may need to be opened for equipment that requires an infrared remote. Fabric doors allow infrared signals to pass and offer some acoustic permeability, ideal for speakers or equipment requiring passive ventilation.
