TV stand problem...ok for an amp?

TV stand problem...ok for an amp?


Need some advice here...

I have to have a tapering corner stand big enough for my 46" Samsung. I have to (trust me) get my kit in the shelves below rather than elswhere. I will have a minimum of an Onkyo 606/875, V+ box, PS3, and DVD. For 4 boxes, I need two shelves minimum. For sensible viewing height the cabinet has to be about 50cm high max.

This link shows two possibles, in the JUAL or maybe the HALO. Problem! The shelves are about 20cm high. Slipping an Onkyo in will be tight. My question is will this be ok?

It can't go on top as my MT1's and tv sit there! As I need a top shelf for the speakers too, one any smaller wouldn't work.
There is no clearance above, but the shelving is open. Sadly, at 40cm deep some options will not even get the 875 in. If this isn't ok, what the heck can I do?

At 50cm high, tapering, and max width (as the 46") about 115cm I can't see a solution! Where can I get the Onkyo! It can't be elswhere due to obstacles in the room, and a resulting cable nightmare.

Cheers Steve

I would try to give an amp as much room as possibly, they generate a lot of heat and its good to displace that somewhere that hopefully wont effect it or other equipment.
