Lightbulb AV Rack Advice

I have a Samsung SP50L7HX and am using the supplied side rack for my AV equipment.
Although it fits in well, it is not particularly stable and is getting quite full now.



I would like to get an alternative rack to hold my equipment to place on the present base. As you can see from the pic above it is limited in height due to the TV (66.5 cm to TV bottom). Width is not really an issue as the corner base piece can be moved outward to accomodate. It also needs to fit in with the TV's looks i.e. glass shelving and black or silver supports.

I have found this, but would like to know if anyone has seen anything else they think would be suitable.
Budget is under £100, it would have to be something special to make spend more than that.

EDIT: Just noticed the one I linked is only an add-on shelf for the unit pictured, oh dear, looks like it's gonna be expensive!

Thanks

I think i'll give up on trying to fit it underneath the TV.
God AV racks are expensive, I may have to go for something like this from Argos as it's the only reasonably priced one i've seen.

I have the smaller version of that stand and I have to admit I am delighted with the quality of it. Much cheaper than the Alphason stands and they look very similar.

Re: AV Rack Advice

I too am trying to find a rack for under £100, some of them are just a joke. Does anyone have some links with some cheap ones.

Please help

Thanks in advance
