TV/Equipment Stand Advice

    While I wait patiently until I get home this evening to open up the AVR and speakers that were delivered this morning, I've been thinking about where to put the various bits and bobs as the current stand is tiny. So, I'm hoping for advice and suggestions on a suitable stand:
    TV is a 37" LG LCD,
    AVR is Onkyo 875 which is *heavy* and is going to need excellent ventilation
    Connecting via the AVR are/will be:
    - XBOX 360,
    - Wii,
    - DVD Player (to be replaced by BluRay when funds are available)
    - Sky receiver
    - Component connection for iPod (small but still needs a little space and accessibility)
    - Mac Mini (will be adding this to the mix as a media centre)
    - .... (I'm sure I've missed something from the wishlist)

    Do you guys have something that would suit this or alternative recommendations (I'm open to suggestions from anyone).

    I got one of these http://www.allcam.biz/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=73&products_id=584
    Because I had a lot of stuff and needed a decent stand that could hold it and my centre speaker too.
    I think it's great and pretty cheap too

    Looks like a nice stand, did you order from that site? If so was postage expensive?

    Thanks for that suggestion, with all the kit setup last night I've come to the conclusion that I'm probably best off building one myself - had a look at B&Q online for materials and reckon I could probably do it handy enough.

    Guys,

    Apologies for the delay in getting back to you!

    Have a look at this stand pic attached (Its called the Kirra AV Rack) which we are getting in over the next week or so (in volume! so I'm selling them out cheap!).

    It normally retails close to £400 (check it out online anywhere) we are selling it at just £169.95 - its made of S O L I D wood, no veneers at all and it looks pretty funky!

    Alternatively we have the Icon Aero Plus stand which is a black glass luxury stand which has a built in swivel bracket for the TV leaving the top tier of the rack free for AV speakers or AV electronics – it’s normally £199.95 but I can do it at £129.95!

    Drop me a line if any of these interest you!

    Thanks again,

    ATB,

    John Mc
