Default What Stand?

Looking to upgrade my TV Stand.

Currently.


Looking for something wider to make more room. Need space for Center channel under TV, Wii, Power Center. Plus whats already there(Receiver, Cable Box, 360, PS3) I have ran out of room.

Need room for at least 6-7 things. Around 60" wide 24"tall and 23-24" deep. Will have the current 50" DLP on it till I upgrade to a 65-73" DLP.

Pictures of your setup would help if you have something that may work.

Ideas, Pictures?

Thanks



ps. the carpet is comming out any day now. and the walls are also being painted.

Prepare to cough up a few more benjies then. Good closed units that are that big are a tad pricey for quality units, i had to buy open though due to the size of my center channel

My boss does custom furniture. He said he could build me a cabinet with my measurements for under 200. Would be around 60" wide x 24" tall x 24 deep. To look something like this: ($200 does not include glass for doors)


OR




It would have(in this order from L to R) PS3(top) 360(bottom), Center Channel, Receiver, Cable Box, Power Conditioner. That leaves the Wii still without a home in the cabinet. Ideas?

And I dont know what to think if I ever get another DVD player or Standalone Bluray

how tall are your stands ? for a 65"+ set, i cannot see any taller than about 16-17". mine (see gallery, more pics just added) is 15 1/2" . and when i build one this summer, its going to be about the same height. when seated, i look at just a tick below the dead center of the screen = perfect.

How is your center channel mounted?

My current stand is 24" and I am looking at almost dead center now.
