tl;dr Good media cabinet company that makes good quality equipment to make my stuff look its best and function its best.
Its inside a closet so muffling the sound isn't required but probably would be a nice benefit...


I have just set up my theater upstairs and I have quite a bit of equipment just sitting in my closet.
Its time for a cabinet to make it all nice and pretty.
Right now I really only have 1 rack mountable thing and its the switch.
Things not pictured are the Denon receiver and Apple TV, FireTv, Router
I also will be adding 1 or 2 rack mount battery backups and a rack mounted pc so I can play around and explore running a PC through the projector.

The space in the room is
45 inches wide,
71 inches deep
77 inches high at its lowest point (the ceiling stants down from door (highest part) to back wall (lowest part)

Im thinking I can get 1 nice rack enclosure on the right side next to the white box (there is about 38 inches width between wall and box)

So thats my current setup. Id like something tall so I can fill it up instead of bying only what I need now and having to buy another later because I maxed out the first one.

Thanks for the response I'll look into that brand. Is there a universal standard for mounting holes and such? If it's media can I put pc stuff in there? If I buy something advertised as a server rack would media stuff really not fit?
 
I think U counts are pretty standard in both the computing and theater world. There's face plates and mounting hardware for most theater equipment to mount in a rack that has the same mounting HW as server racks.
 
I ended up going with VMP EREN-27
It's a 27 unit that came with shelves, covers, and cooling fans. I'm happy with it so far.

Wow, that before and after is hilariously different. Congrats on turning that pile of wires and LEDs into an attractive AV cabinet.
 
Thanks Slayed. Yea it really cleaned up. (Don't look behind the cabinet though.. haha)

Qbanb.. I paid $639 at a local computer shop. They had it in stock so I didn't have to pay any freight or anything. BHPhotoVideo.com Has it for $549 (or something close to that) but freight to my house was a couple hundred bucks.
