Any votes for or against a TV component stand with glass shelves?


The TV will likely be a 55 inch screen.  The audio components will be a Blue Sound Vault 2, Manley preamp, W4S amp, along with the cable box.

 I currently have a custom made wood cabinet which looks and sounds good in my current residence.  I now have a new summer home, and trying to decide whether to go with a sleek looking ready made unit or spend the extra time and money for another custom unit.

Your input would be appreciated.

I used a "Maxim" three-shelf tempered glass table for 12 years and didn’t notice and problems. Supported 4-5 components (no TV). Please note: I did use sorbothane footers and BDR cones for vibration control (as usual).
Looked at the web sites for Sanus and Salamander and most of their products have glass shelves as well.  Plus I thought both companies were pricey for their offering.
 I found some nice candidates at Copenhagen imports in the same price range.  Of course that's way more expensive than the simple glass shelf unit I was looking at initially.

Yes, glass may not the best material to make an audio shelf but the negative effects of glass can be mitigated with after market audio footers and/or platforms like Symposium etc.
