Large platform for power amp and more...

Hi

Looking for a large horizontal platform to place my power amp and the remaining components horizontally. I found only audio racks with shelves. But what I need is a sonically satisfying wood platform, 2 meters lenght / 0,5 meter depth, to place in the ground (maybe with some spikes). As simple as that. Are you aware of any brand & model avaliable?

Thanks.

Lisbon, I've been using this with great results:

http://www.ikea.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10101&storeId=7&productId=11317&langId=-20&parentCats=10104*10173

place it horizontally and you'll have the chance to add cones or dedicated platforms for more sensitive components. It's quite sturdy and heavy, I find it very good for the price. It fits 4 pieces of equipment. Ikea will open it's first portuguese shop in March 2004 (amadora), or go to Spain to get it....or have it custom made.

I made my own all that is needed is a simple piece of MDF. (3/4" thick, Home Depot will even cut this to size ,Next step up would be to get a piece of 13 ply birch such as Home Depot carries in a variety of sizes (3/4" thick) and glue it underneath the MDF,I used gorilla glue to glue them together.
I sprayed painted mine black to match my stand they look great and are really good for resonance issues. there are many different types of spikes and feet you can put under them. Cost for the wood and glue for both was around 35.00.
