Unhappy This is becoming a nightmare - looking for a wide, low cabinet

It great the way that they are selling these nice glass cabinets to go with the new flat panel TV's. Problem is that when you get them home and connect all of your seperates what the hell do you do with the mess of cables in clear view behind the cabinet.

I though I came up with an easy solution - find a wide, low cabinet (approx. 200cm x 30cm) to store all of my equipment and then plonk the TV on top the speakers at either end. I've even scourced a Logitec RF extender to the cabinet can have solid doors!

The problem is, where to find something like this (or even modular units that will make up these dimensions)! Getting something like this made would cost a small fortune!

Help! Any advice greatly appreciated

you could try a couple of these end to end http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/30108216
or this one without the legs (only white though) http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/30086969
or there are plenty of designs at high end prices
