"Best" audio rack for under $500.00?

Check out Adona - they list regularly here - very high quality at a very modest price - $500 definitely has you in the park - I am happy with mine and feel like it would take 3-10x to better it

I agree with Mr.Tennis for a complete rack at $500.00. You could sub, MDF shelves for Acrylic, but it will cost ya. Also investigate into damping materials, to decouple your components, this can be cheap and effective, I love the Cardas blocks with Sorbothane® pads.

Try this....

Superb quality in my black Plateau racks purchased from Outlaw Audio. Check them out in my pics of my HT. I believe they were around $300some including shipping. Doesn't appear that Outlaw sells them anymore, but I'm sure someone does. They also have casters available for extra.

BTW, I purchased Video racks, ones that are designed to hold large, up to 36", TV's. They were low enough to contain my equipment underneath the fixed screen on wall. I prefer the low profile look to the taller racks.
