I think this is a great idea and depending on design it will also serve to reduce visual clutter. It seems its always been part of the audio culture to prominently display all the gadgets, plus components had to be close to the input devices and fairly close to the speakers. And, after all, most are beautifully designed and serve as eye candy so they demand to be displayed.
My challenge is space for the various components and I don't want my family room looking like an electronics bay. If by some miracle my wife will allow my clone speakers into the family room, I'll probably locate all the electronics in the basement and eliminate all input sources that can't be remotely controlled. I was originally going with vintage amplifiers, receiver and turntable for a classic look, but with them out of sight I'll switch to something more contemporary, maybe will end up with Crowns myself.
