You did good. You would not have been able to purchase such a rack from any of the high end boutique rack makers for that $$. I paid more for my Butcher Block Acoustics rack and it is very similar to yours in looks and size.
Denver and Front Range furniture maker -- just did my audio rack!
Just a head's up that I had a wonderful audio rack made by Clay Street Woodworks in Morrison, CO.
He worked with me on dimensions, materials, and it will be both nice and low and rock solid for my rig. Very cost competitive with everything else out there, and custom made. FYI, Colorado audio peeps.
@denverfred I just learned (from a fellow audiophile) that Nobsound springs, Townshend podiums, and Synergistic Hfts are huge. Heaven help me. |
I did 2" on top because I believe lighter gear will be up there -- streamer, DAC, Preamp. Lower shelf may have a very heavy Pass Labs amp. I don't even know if the above makes sense from a vibration point of view, I just thought, "thicker, heavier on the bottom" might look better, too. I bet 2" on each shelf would be fine and would look good, too. |
