I have owned many many racks and now own the Sistrum 5- shelf (plus Sistrum stands under my floorstanding speakers). You can use the discs under the spiked feet on your hardwood floor, as someone else has pointed out. I think the looks are stunning and the shelves can all be individually adjusted to wherever you want them. I can also add a 6th shelf if I need it. Also--I didn't think I could do this, but I place my Linn LP12 on the top shelf, with the Audiopoints on the edge of the metal bottom plate of the TT (on the Trampolin base), and the TT sounds fantastic! It really works on that rack. So--another vote for the Sistrum.
Looking For High Quality Equipment Rack
I'm going to move soon and I'll take the opportunity to make some changes to my system. I want to focus first upon upgrading my equipment rack. Currently using a Target ProXL. It's a metal frame with glass shelves which I've supplemented with a few BDR shelves, 1/2" thick glass, rubber mats and vibrapods. I'm looking for a less haphazard, more rational approach to resonance dissipation and control.
I'm considering the following:
Arcici Suspense - http://www.arcici.net/
Sistrum 6 Shelf - http://www.audiopoints.com/multiplatforms.HTML
Grand Prix 5 Shelf Lemans - http://www.grandprixaudio.com/lemans.html
Mapleshade 3 Shelf Samson (2) - http://www.mapleshaderecords.com/tweaks/samson.html
Immedia E&T Spider - http://www.immediasound.com/ComponentStands.html
The rack will sit on a hard wood floor in the same room as the loudspeakers. The turntable will not be place upon the new rack. I'd prefer a single rack (5 shelf minimum), but I'd also consider two 3 shelf racks. I'm looking for anybody's experience and comments. Feel free to recommend any other brands too.
Thanks to all.
