Nick,
If you're going to position the equipment out of the way make sure to think if they have on-screen displays or not. My Pio receiver has no OSD so I need to be able to read the front for channel level, sound mode etc... That may or may not affect where you want to place the equipment.
Also, don't forget about your air vents in the HT room - that's an easy way for sound to find its way out and could undo to some extent all of your other efforts. When I was building I had one of the local pros come evaluate and give me ideas (free visit cuz I was buying stuff from them). I would never have thought of that if he hadn't pointed it out.
Movie storage - I am partial to some nice thin book shelves in the back of the room. It keeps all of the HT stuff in the HT room and doesn't take up much space in the room. I am using some cheap Ikea shelves that I ended up cutting to a good height for my low ceilinged basement HT room.
