Hello all.

I am looking for some ideas on how to mount equipment under the stand of my 190.5 infinia.

Due to the metal frame and very thin plastic side panels the only place that seems safe to mount equipment seems to be the back of the doors. Has anyone had any luck coming up with another solution that doesn't involve a remote cabinet.

I have a 150.4 and have about 4.5" from the edge of the ATO to the hinge so I am going to build a sliding control board for that section. Mount it on some drawer slides and have it topped with a 9 switch rack mount power bar.

Haven't run all the way through the design yet, that's a project for this weekend but I think I should have room to create a false wall to have the wires tucked away and then mount the actual controllers etc...to the front.

Good morning! Any chance you have an update on this project? I'm putting my 150.4 together now and looking for ideas/inspiration as to what others have done with this metal stand.

Definitely learned some things and would probably give myself another 0.5" of clearance but it was hard not to be greedy about that whole 5" of free space!

Im not sure what you need to mount, but for my 110.4, I mount all my controllers on the left side panel with strong double sided tapes
