stacked equipment isolation?

hello. due to space restrictions i need to stack my dvdp and my int. amp. it is mid-fi at best but i want to hit all the points(power, vibration, acoustics) within my system before beginning the next wave of component upgrades. might anyone have suggestions on what to put in between each component? lets try and keep it between the posts, i.e. vibraplane and dayton cones. i was thinking maybe cardas cuboids. thanks, d.

Mapleshade makes some relatively inexpensive composite squares that offer isolation and still provide enough space for good ventilation.

I recommend using a vertical rack which is a "designed system" to deal with the situation. I feel that this is a better approach than a "hodge-podge" method.

Disclaimer: I work for the company which makes Sistrum Platforms and racks. Therefore, anything I say could be used against me. :^)

thanks all! the thing is, i have all my electronics actually inside the fireplace to keep as many wires and cables out of view as possible. my system is in the living room and also used for HT, i've got over 25 cables running. i'm not sure a stand would fit in there is why i was asking. all great answers, thanks.
