Well, I had this Ikea shoe cabinet for awhile. I did not use it and kept in case I need it, and the time came.
i have setup a small stage made out of pallets in my Art Asylum coffee shop and I needed a place to host an amp, mixer, cables and microphones.
This how it came to be this excellent "rack" and storage.

The amp measures an few millimeters shorter in width that the shoe cabinet , so ii fitted perfectly.
The mixer is a xylyx1204usb, and it almost fitted. If you use 90 degree XLR and 3/4, the door closes without problems otherwise, unplug the top cables.

This how it looks. I stored microphones under the mixer and cables under the amp

and this is how it looks finished. I left the amp exposed for ventilation.
Hope you enjoy my hack. You can adapt this to other uses like play station, laptop ect
