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

Looking to move my main components out of my mechanical room into my listening room and need some furniture recommendations.  Would be placed on a wall perpendicular to my speakers by a window.  Hoping for something with 3 shelves and about 60" long that can accommodate my audio research pre amp that is about 20-21" deep with cables out the back.  Ideally TT would go on top with 6 components on the lower two shelves, so I need a stand that handles 3 units across each shelf.  I have viewed so many great stands out there that would work but can't locate them now that I need to find one.  Prefer black and understand that I may need to use some anti vibration platters.  I am currently using one on my turntable.  I plan to place my amplifier under my center channel with a separate stand.

Thanks in advance.

Can't get the url from my system to copy over but it is under Woots system if you have time to view.

+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.

+1  on Core Audio. I worked with Arnold on my rack and also added a platform for my power amp. The photos in my system do not do it justice and I would be happy to share additional images if you would like. However the best option is to have a call with him and talk about your goals for the rack and hear more about his approach to the work. Best of luck!
