Need help with a rack

Hi Sean,
I'm very happy with the amp stands I got from Timbernation. Check out the website below.

You might take a look at the Sanus Natural Furniture stuff.

i was trying to decide between a core designs and a timbernation rack. i ended up with a pair of core designs mod3 racks. they are great and the american black walnut looks amazing.

Thanks everyone, I check the suggestions out. Anyone used an actual furniture piece and modded it?

Because my system was in our living room, and because we had mostly antiques, I was in a similar situation as you. Searching antique dealers, I was able to find a cabinet meant to display dishware that probably originally sat on top of a counter. By strengthening the sides and back and converting the shelves to maple (from Timbernation), this became quite rigid and functioned very well. If you are interested, give me your email address and I will send a picture.
