I used to own a really heavy wood cabinet. It was a PITA to change cables. That was long ago. Now I use a glass and steel open design shelving unit. The main claim to fame is I have it not between the speakers, but over on hte side wall, with my turntables even further away.
Tte main rack in not right up tothe wall, so I have plenty of room to change cables, all that sort of stuff.
All those commercial racks are open on all sides for a reason...(not just to be cheap_
So consider that if you have one built.
