Budget rack for heavy amp?

I have just taken delivery of 31kg of arcam p7 plus 16kg of av9. My current rack is not up to the task, so I need to get a new rack.
Requirements are:

Able to take 50kg on bottom shelf for amps.
Able to fit av9, p7, sky hd, pio 51fd, 20cm x 40cm x 30cm centre speaker.
Tv standing on top.

It needs to be at least 450mm deep, and 850mm wide.

Lastly, ideally it would cost about £200 although I realize that may be unrealistic!

Any ideas what make/models I should be looking at?

Check out spectral Spectral Closed CL550 (UK) 50Kg bottom shelf load specs......may have to have a good dig around the range to find that loading and your budget Bit wider than you wanted but everything fits

Re: Budget rack for heavy amp?

Nice unit, but way beyond my current price range unfortunately. I already robbed the till to get the Arcam pre/power!

Any cheaper suggestions? I was considering the Stands Unique Av10 High from the powerbuy, but was hoping someone knew of something similar dimensions and strength but significantly cheaper. I guess the answer is no, not surprisingly.
