I just bought a Mitsubishi 57732, and I'm concerned about placing it in the cabinet that currently houses my Mits 55807. I know the DLPs have a fan to cool the lamp, but should I be concerned about the heat build up around the set?

The new TV there will have about 2" of space around it in the front and 8" in the back, based on the angled shape of the TV. There will also be 6" to the wall behind the TV. I created sort of a mock up of the inside of the cabinet.



Does this look like there will be adequate airflow?

The link below shows my cabinet and the current setup. The base in the front of the TV is a false front. I am converting that into a stand.
