Matt, get in touch with me. Richfield found a new rack that he's going with. Said he couldn't' believe the sound difference. Personally, my favorite so far is the HRS rack with their platforms built in. I've heard their gear in many high end systems and they are just amazing. I love when you audition and they quickly take away the platform and you can hear a negative difference. Sound floor, decay times etc... I'm about to make a few sets of wood blocks out of cypress like Ayre and Cardas make. I will make a nice looking set for all my gear and matching holders for my speaker cables.
I've noticed that by lifting the cables up off the carpet is important. It's a small, but audible difference. I implore all of you to try it. It's one of those inexpensive tweeks that is needed in any system that has a carpet. I don't know if the static builds up on a wood floor where it would make a difference. Any of you have a solid floor? If so, do you lift your cables off the floor and if so, any difference?
