Rack Recommendations


Hello - I'm looking for a vertical rack recommendation for my system. I'm looking for something with 4 or 5 shelves and for it to be under 1k.

I'm considering a solid steel rack (5.4) or maybe even the new S5. Everything else I've seen is significantly more expensive. I'm wondering if there might be something I'm missing out there?

At the end of the day I'm skeptical of the value that these high dollar racks bring to a system and I'm more looking for something that "gets the job done".

My system includes:
Pass xp10
Pass x250.5
VPI Scount 2
Oppo 105
PS Audio GCPH

I appreciate any and all suggestions!

I have the cherry shelves.

Some people like MDF, some don't. I have my speakers (Totem Arro's) on MDF stands I made myself and they are okay.
Schubert,
If a 2% improvement was a quantifiable subjective improvement over a rack that cost let's say $250.00, then I can see someone thinking that it it doesn't represent good value. The question is of course, where are you getting the 2% figure from, and what racks have you had personal experience with, or is this just an assumption?
Schubert,
In that case, since my own personal experience with racks is that spending $1,500 - $2,000 makes a very audible and worthwhile difference, I will have to respectfully disagree with you on this one.
