69" and 23 sides looks funny, off balance? How much room do you have there? How about making it a true build-in instead of free standing. It doesn't cost any more or less.
Here's what I would do, have the TV mounted on a 3/4" plywood backing of the cabinet instead of the wall. It looks better that way instead of looking at a giant painted wall color hole. 24" deep is the past unless you need the deep storage space? Reduce the depth and build the the entire unit 14-16" deep. It normally more then enough depth for modern stereo, or theater electronics. Cut holes on backing from down below where the receiver lives, fish wires to holes in back of TV. No wires will show or seen. Mount to on bracket so it can be pulled out toward the front to eliminate the feeling of it sitting under a hood. When done, push back toward wall, for looks. If you must have steps between center and side cabinets, the side can then be 12" to create that step look. Save some frontal space too by going to a less deep cabinet. Run that all the way up to ceiling and use crown or flat molding to hide gap. Paint or stain to finish.
