Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ?

I'm going to be purchasing a new rack and would like some input on materials used on audio racks.
Is there a sonic differance between metal or aluminum on the frame of an audio rack ?
My amp is an Almarro A318B SET tube amp.
My CDP is an Emotiva ERC-1.
Thank you for any info.

Thank you Samhar.

I looked at your system and was highly impressed.
I love a well treated music room.

The improvements with the addition of room treatments wasn't subtle as you know!!!! I was thrilled with the improvement in the articulation of the notes and especially so in the bass region.
