How high is the open shelf-like area on the table? I want to use this as an entertainment center and want to put the receiver in that space.

it's 5 1/4" but there is 2 more inches under the frame around the whole top.

Its fairly wide. I have a 27 inch TV sitting on top of it. It looks like there is enough room to put small speakers next to it. The roll out table is pretty cool too. I leave it out all the time and it's like I have a second table.

I measured my unit. The glass front doors open to 3 shelves that are 24 inches wide and about 5 3/4 apart. Considering heat I would say a 5 inch high receiver would work best. There are cable openings in the back of each shelf. We are pleased with our unit but my receiver is in a separate side pyramid entertainment unit with DVR player, satellite controller, and VHS player.

Each section is 19 3/4 ins long and 4 1/2 ins high. Our DVD player and cable box fit in each section with room to spare. We have received a lot of positive comments on the stand! I think you will find it meets your needs and looks great.

My playstation fits fine and you can opt to not put a shelf in if your receiver doesnt fit...the top shelf and bottom shelf is 5.5in and the middle shelf is 6in (height between shelves in glass section)

Thanks, Leyn. I think I could modify these shelves as you suggest or use a raiser...I like the desk and I think it would hold my flight sim equipment. My other choice is the Roccaforte gaming table, but they are very difficult to buy....can't seem to find them in stock anywhere...

the open shelf is the total width of the stand. There is no divider so your DVD player will fit. I have a CD player in there which is 18 inches wide and takes up just half the shelf

I suppose the height is a matter of taste. I use this cabinet with a 60" tv sitting on it, and the TV is at the perfect height for somebody seated watching it (middle of the screen at eye level). I don't know why somebody would want it much higher in a normal home setting.

There are 3 different holes so that you can put the shelf wherever you want. I just measured the the lowest hole where you can put your shelf and it is a little over 7 inches. I love this entertainment center. It is so classy and I get a lot of compliments. Hope this helps.

I have mine on a connecting shelf above the T.V. and it works fine that way. I don't have great surround sound out of it because of the shape of my room, but the sound quality and sound dynamics are well above anything else that I have had.

The top is 26" wide and 22" deep. The access to the shelf on the levels below the top is limited to 18" front and side.It should be possible to fit the receiver in from the side, however about 2.5 " of the face of the receiver on either side will be covered from the front view by the legs and support bracing, if placed below the top shelf. The access thickness between shelves is 7.5".

It is 30" high. Behind a sofa you will see the items on the table but not the table itself. It wasn't a problem for me because I used mine against the wall.

I would safely say six and one half inches between shelves. The top shelf will allow you to go to nine inches if you don't mind putting your receiver behind the crossbar. I really like this product, because it is simple but elegant.

this review describes the dimensions, albeit for the 60 inch stand: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1P5EV8PC490TK/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B001O9CK3Q&nodeID=&tag=&linkCode= "All of my components fit on the shelves but it was a very tight fit for my receiver. Many of the older receivers are pretty large so this is something to consider if looking to buy this. The bottom shelf has 6 3/4" clearance and the top has 9 3/4" behind the wood front (6 3/4" between middle shelf and bottom of wood front). My receiver needed 7" and just fit on the top behind the wood front, but there was plenty of room for everything else. The depth is about 15" in the middle tapering to a shorter depth on the ends. "

It is 20 - 1/2 inches high, but you would have to remove the shelf. My desktop fits very nicely on the open shelf, but on its side,

It is about the height of a coffee table. Would be kind of narrow for a tv stand.

I believe it will be possible. As long as the receiver is placed at shelf on top of the drawers. And the dimensions of your receiver. My receiver would fit (an older onkyo model). Just leave a little space from wall to aid wire installation. And your PS and cable box is placed higher. I wouldn't add too much else as far as weight goes though unless you reinforce it in some way. It's a great shelf I use mine as a supplement to my aquarium and a few books.
