Well, I've reached the capacity of my old A/V stand. I'm expecting delivery of a larger amplifier within the next week or so, and it will not fit in my current stand. I need a new rack, and I have been tearing my hair out trying to find something that will meet all of my particular needs. Here's what I'm looking for:
- Modular construction is wildly preferred. I move a lot, and having something that I can break down and set back up would help out a lot. It also makes it easier to get it up the stairs if I can do it in pieces.
- Shelves need to be at least 18" deep. My CD player and amplifier need that much depth. Both of those are around 60 pounds, so the shelves must be sturdy as well.
- Open construction is an absolute must. I want to diffuse as much heat as possible. Enclosed cabinets are totally out.
- I keep my TV on top of my stand, and given the dimensions of my room (there is a sloping ceiling), I'm limited in height to about 30" or so. The total width can go up to 6 feet, but needs to be at least 40 inches.
- Isolation would be great as well.
- Budget is US$1,500 or less.
- I don't have any DIY skills or equipment, so that is not an option.
Does anyone have any suggestions for racks like this?
