Yet another "what tv cabinet" post.

I want a cabinet to hold (size WxDxH):
PS3 (32.5 x 28 x 10)
htpc (43 x 43 x 17)
sky box (36 x 23 x 6.5)
amp (43 x 27 x 16)

TV is a 40" samsung lcd.

I prefer wood finish of some sort, rather than metal and don't want doors on the front so remotes etc will work.

All I can find is the ateca bordeaux Ateca Bordeaux TV Stand up to 50" in Oak :: TV Accessories :: Electronics :: Paysan ~ Lifestyle Shopping For The Home & Garden

and the alphason FW 1100 Alphason | Finewoods Series - Model: FW1100-LO/B

The alphason is actually a bit too shallow for the htpc, so I'd end up hacking the back of it out a bit, which obviously isn't great.

The ateca I like, but the equipment is going to fill the shelves, a centimetre here and there spare but thats all - will this look naff ?

Are there any other light wood bench/cabinets that are along the same lines ?

Im not worried if its quite long, but don't want to go less than say 35cm high.

Considered the above and this one.

The ateca is the wider of the wooden ones. Looking at pictures of it with gear on on the xbox forum, you can still fit an xbox and a skyhd side by side on the bottom shelf.

The ateca is deeper. Ended up going for the alphason, at av4home. I like the rounded top glass. The ateca can be had for less than €200 if you google.fr and live in France

I doubt the Alphason FW1100 can be had any cheaper. Only available in the UK as far as I can see. Each to their own

The glass on the Ateca is smoked brown. Interesting feature.

I have the ateca and its a lovely stand.

Whilst the measurements of the ateca seem to only leave 1cm or 2cm above the top of the amp- there is another couple above that before the glass top, its just the black metal edge drops down a little.
