Are you sure you don't want to put the monoblocks on individual amp stands (that sit directly on the floor) rather than all-in on the rack?
Audio Rack Selection
Putting together a new system and an upgraded audio rack will be part of the package. Would love to know your thoughts on the issue? Is there a true need to buy upper tier racks?
The rack will need to hold a McIntosh C2600 preamp, 2 monoblocks, power conditioner and a turntable. Flooring in the room is hardwood.
Would love your thoughts and recommendations.

Mike, thank you for the idea about wall mounting the turntable. I do live on the second floor and there was quite a bit of movement when I conducted your test. I will check out the Core products and BDR. Are there any other quality racks out there at better price points? I still need to purchase cables and speakers. Looking to save where possible without compromising the system. |
In that case Geoff we all need to put out systems on the floor in the basement. Bh, trust me on this one. The amps will do much better with short wires and the rest of your equipment will be happier without those big power supplies right under them. It will also allow you to use a shorter, smaller rack making room for the turntable's wall shelf above. If you keep the speaker wires under 4 feet I have a few extra lengths of Kimber 8VS hanging around I would be happy to send you. You just pay the postage. If you want me to terminate them you will have to send me the terminations you want to use spades or bananas. This will give you the extra money for longer signal wires. https://www.parts-express.com/cat/connectors-adapters/9 Are your ins and outs RCA or balanced? |
