Your work looks pretty darn good from here. Nice idea; the shadow boxes. Maybe you can notch a groove in the rear with a router for mounting connectors; stabilise the unit with corner clamps and a vise and route out a groove in the center of the rear panel deep enough to allow a standard RCA jack to clear the frame. I have seen people drill oversize holes for mounting jacks in the rear panel then attaching a pre-drilled brass plate over the section of panel where the holes lay and mounting connectors on the brass or smoke colored acrylic also works.
