Need a high-WAF stand solution


I'm moving the stereo into the living room, so need a stand solution with a high WAF.  In my case, that means a cabinet where all the components aren't on display, with the possible exception of my flat black power amp, which could go on top.  Other wood tones in the room are dark cherry, and a brownish stained rosewood. 

I'm looking to have the components stacked in a single column, don't have room for a wider TV cabinet.  I could spend as much as $3000 for the right piece.

From a tone matching point-of-view, the best solution would be a Salamander Synergy 402 in cherry.  But I've heard concerns about the overall construction quality, and resonance that affects the sound quality.  It looks like the back panel is removable, so there should be good cooling airflow.  Anybody have first hand experience?  Are the included shelves stable enough so that I could add on some third party isolation platforms?

The BDI Corridor Audio Tower would be my first choice if it came in cherry -- reviews say quality is good and resonance is minimized.  I'm also considering the BDI Mirage Audio Tower if I can't find a red wood solution I like better.  Wondering if the build quality on that is as good as on the Corridor, given the price difference.
I love the looks of the Timbernation stands, but they all display the components.  I've contacted a couple of local cabinetmakers to get custom pieces, but lead times are quite long at the moment. 

Anybody have any options I haven't considered, or have opinions on the pieces I'm considering?

I use a Stickley cabinet, pretty beefy, use HRS isolation products for components. I cherry pick the yearly truckload sale….

Asking around here for a high WAF rack is like going on Rennlist asking for a high environmental approval factor hybrid.
I owned Synergy 40 rack for many years.  It is very well built, the aluminum channeling makes it extremely rigid.  I had the perforated metal sides on mine but no door. I liked it because there is an infinite number of positions for the shelves and they rest on a metal thingamajig which isolates very well. The only reason I moved on was because I outgrew it and some of the McIntosh pieces were too big for it.  Do yourself a favor and don’t bother with the back panel.  Impossible to use with high end interconnects and speaker cables.  Looks better without it. You can add spikes to it as the thread is 1/4 20 from other places that sell them.  Very high WAF.
