Double shelf for receiver and PS3

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Hi, I didn't find anything when I searched - I'm looking for a double shelf unit which can comfortable hold a Denon receiver (standard sized, a 1712), plus a PS3 on a separate shelf. Most of the units I've seen look too small for a receiver. Some are almost 14" but then have a big curve or a fat tube against the wall, cutting the maximum depth to 11". Does anyone have any suggestions? It's going in a narrow spot between subs, so I'd like it to just be the width of my receiver if possible.

Thanks, Apnea

Thanks for the reply. We're looking ideally for something wall mounted that is a bit bigger than something like this:

I think this looks great, but I'm concerned my receiver won't fit on it (i.e. will hang over the front).

Also interested in this thread. I want something clean and simple, but i'm really worried that the my receiver won't fit as well. I was looking at these same mounts. Anyone know of any others available on the market?

You could look at something like this.

I have one of these combined with the double wide version for my set-up. I believe the single wide holds 50lbs per shelf (the Denon is under 25lbs). The channels for wire management were plenty big for all of my needs - which was a lot given the thick insulated cables I use. The shelves look very clean and modern when set-up, but there is a trade-off with this type of shelf if you like to tinker with your system - you may need to have someone help hold your AV units while you connect your cables and manipulate them into the channels. Just speaking from experience...

I have almost this exact same wall mount with a full size onkyo receiver, cable box and ps3. They all fit perfectly and looks great. Even with all the cables plugged into the back of the receiver, it still sits an inch or so back from the edge. For reference its a Tx-sr507 receiver if you want to look it up and check the dimensions. Plenty of room to hide the cables. I can't imagine a reason I would want / need to upgrade to anything else. Looks stylish also.
