I am currently in the process of putting together a home theater, and one of the big things I am missing right now is an audio tower. My tv is mounted above my air conditioner (yah... not much choice here) so I was thinking an audio tower to the right of this would be the best option for my space.
I am looking for something that can store, an xbox 360, marantz SR5005, cable box, belkin AV30, and an s570 bluray player. As well as possibly having the ability to store some DVDs/Blurays/Games and some of the Xbox stuff like controllers and such while still hiding all of my cables.
And I want it to be black, or black-brown for "design" purposes.
The cheap one I found was this basic, essentially bookshelf:

Cheap Walmart version:

Seems pretty good to me, better then walmart maybe:

Nicer more expensive Black/Cherry:

But essentially curious if anyone here as used any of these and has an opinion on them or maybe some suggestions? Also what should be stacked on top of one of another and what shouldn't? Also is having a closed glass door like the last one going to be an overheating issue?
250 is probably the highest I can go budget wise give or take 20 bucks
