I don't have one of these changers, though I rather fancy one.
 
I ended up making a cabinet for my AV kit, complete with built-in centre speaker below the TV. It's plenty big enough for my 36" Panasonic and, at about 70cm, is deep enough for such a changer.
 
Just a few evenings work and three 8'x4' sheets of MDF. It is, believe me, plenty strong enough. It also takes two people to move it! Our daughter is 10 weeks old now, so I'll be putting some doors on it soon. Fortunately (!), the way I designed it, it's fairly easy to retrofit them.
 
I'll post a piccy, if anyone's interested.

I just type the numbers...
I'll play a bit with them again tonight. I gave up a long ago, thought it's not possible.
I just started automating home with the idea of giving voice commands and it will change CD and play, but it's long way to there.
My current problem is that I have no cabinet to put it in, so it's still sitting on the floor (last 6 month).
It's 56cm deep as you know, and I couldn't find any suitable Hi-Fi cabinet that deep.
We'll get a baby girl in a month and will start runnin around soon, and all those LEDs will be so tempting. Therefore I'm looking for cabinet with glass doors, not the open one.
I checked IKEA and most manufacturers from Hi-Fi mags, but no luck. I would like it to be strong enough to withstand my 32" Widescreen TV. It's 70kg.(So I'm looking for TV stand, really)
Any idea?
Where did you put yours?

I'll still chase you about this disc selecting, when I try again at home. There was a huge battle when I brought it home and the war still lasts. SWMBO is not much happy with it because of dimensions and choosing the CDs/DVDs. How do you select discs?
