Audio stand needed....Moving main components from mechanical room to listening room

i have adequate feet underneath my individual components on my rack. The casters underneath the rack are invaluable to an ever-changing landscape where I live.

I have three listening rooms and another room entirely devoted to keep all the boxes I gotta maintain. I Shuffle things around a bit. Underneath one set of speakers I have rubber feet placed on top of square acoustical ceiling tiles that allow me to slide it around when I want to. This is a really cool thing to do.

My amp racks are customized with steel pieces welded together supported by casters. It weighs alot. Ideally it would be nice not to have the casters in a perfect world. But the negligible benefit of not having casters is not perceivable and I don’t care how good you’re hearing is. For your information, my subwoofer is not on casters but on some isoacoustic rubber creations that do have importance because of all the freaking vibrating this thing does.

+1 @emergingsoul, my Sound Anchors five shelves vertical rack also has welded pieces as one unit for anti vibration and with the weight of all the gear and the rack  it really is a lot of weight and I have no problem using casters/wheels also. Ahh the subs, I haven’t got around to putting aftermarket footers on my subs, yet...Thanks for reminding me of that tweak.

My apologies. I went overboard in my criticism of casters. I do realize that in some situations they may be needed, and I apologize for being coarse about it.

I have a Sound Anchors rack for 1 of my Monoblocks as well. They made me a custom rack with 9 coves. Steel filled with sand. Must weigh over 400 pounds. 

I've got all Townshend everything and they do not make racks. However, they do make Seismic Rack Isolation Corners which isolate equipment racks down to 30Hz. I've got those too.

i have a Townshend isolation unit under my turntable.  Works great.
