45tx

Come'on, pull out the tape measure already and measure the dumb thing for me...

Sorry, I'm still at work. How about going to the store with your measuring tape?

Ok SRR, I needed to get off my butt and go get a snack anyway!


about 17" deep, 16 1/2" wide, and 7 1/2" tall. I measured the height counting the feet, since I figured you needed to know how much room you needed anyway. Pioneer recommends 8" of clearance above the top to allow for ventilation. Don't try to cram it into a small space, it needs room to breathe. I don't have a heat problem, but I have an open rack.

Thanks bburgoyne26.


Dang it, gonna need a new rack shelf for it. My current 4u shelves are at 15 1/2" deep. Hmmmm, wonder if I can dig up a 5u shelf that is that deep. Well like I said, thanks.

I am also in the process of puchasing 45tx. I am from a small place and I can not see it physically unless I drive 75 miles.


Could someone reconfirm the dimensions thru actual measurement or manual. I am seeing conflicting dimensions. One thread indicated 18 5/16 deep whereas bburgoyne is saying 17" deep. This is enough difference for me to reconsider my choice.


Thanks bburgoyne. I just want to be sure. Unfortunately no pdf on line for tx45.

Well, the actual depth of the metal box is 16 1/2 inches. The knobs in front may add a half inch. Don't forget you need some space in back for the cables. Some of my cables are pretty stiff and have the metal plugs that stick out quite a bit also. I need 3 or 4 inches from the wall just so as not to cram everything too tight and cause problems. Remember, I have an open shelf type rack. If you are getting a cabinet with a back and a front door, you need to allow some extra room. A closed cabinet without some ventilation would not be a good idea either.
