Hotmailjbc: How I know about the ikea lack tables? I have a friend/neighbor close by me who has some very top flight gear and he has tried enough expensive racks. And he swears that the ikea lack tables with iso pucks work the best and on the cheap.
suggestions on affordable equipment stands.
i have a basic stereo system with lots of tweaks because this is part of the hobby i like. my goal is to get the best sound quality for budget prices so i use emotiva amp, pre and cd. music fidelity vdac. magnepan mmg speakers with dual deq velodyne subs. i have improved the performance of my system with isonodes , room tune and bass traps room treatments, furman and ps audio ac improvements and all morrow audio cables. today i put all my gear on a slab of concrete resting on tennis balls and some thick wood butcher blocks between each component. the system was on a glass shelved metal rack from walmart. isolated with vibrapods but still from walmart. the sound quality is improved and i suspect resonance from the metal and glass were a problem. any opinions on this or suggestions about a inexpensive rack that would help ? thanks john

DiY baby! Costs less and you get that special pride when you're done... click here. This is a great rack, I made mine with Ash that still had the curves of the wood on the edges. Cost me around $200 in materials and a couple weekends of drilling and sanding. Love it |
