Seeking recommendations about material, design, makers of low-lying rack for gear
I'm looking to set up a new room with
I've wired the room so that the mono blocks can each sit on a stand behind each speaker.
Questions:
(1) I've been reading about good materials for the mono stands — maple? Other ideas? I would probably like to have them made locally if possible but would consider buying them from a company. Just don't want to pay an arm and leg. Ideas?
(2) I'd like to have a very low-to-the-floor rack in between the monos. Someday, I'll get the gear off to the side, but at the moment, the gear will be in between. Any suggestions regarding the design of this rack — materials? Purveyors?
Thank you.

Honestly, Townshend Pods are so good I would focus above all on finding the rack with the looks you want, and rely on Pods for sound quality. Since nobody makes a rack that can compete with Pods on a price/sound quality basis, but plenty make racks that look real good for the money, this will also be the most cost-effective way to go. |
