I like the way you have put your major heat generating devices down the bottom of the rack, where they'll be in the path of the coolest air.
I assume that when finished you'll have a door and sides on the rack, otherwise you won't get good air flow bottom to top.
It's a 19" computer rack, it's designed with space at the sides as well as front and back.
Also contrary to popular belief, the hottest components are the network switch, video processor and NAS box. The amps are so grunty that they don't even break a sweat at the sort of listening levels that I'm allowed to run.
Also, I put the amps on top, the rack would be top-heavy and at risk of toppling when it's being moved.
