I'm considering buying a 818v2 but I want to make sure it will fit in my rack. The interior width of my rack is 18.5" (47 cm). The Meridian specification says the width of the 818v2 is 18.9" (48 cm). I'm guessing that this is the width of just the front panel and the width of the chassis is less than 47 cm.

Can anyone confirm that the width of the chassis is less than 18.5" or 47 cm?

Thank you!
