i bought a metal and glass ht stand that looks very nice from walmart and put vibrapods and isonodes under everything but when i moved the electronics to a homemade wood butcher block and isonode set up to experiment the sound quality was much better. i havn,t controlled all variables like ic and power cord alignments but i suspect the glass shelves and the hollow metal legs may be less than optimal. i am going to take the glass shelves off and attach some maple shelves on the ht stands and see what that does. i don,t have a quality turntable on the system now. good luck john
Do audio/video TV stands offer good isolation?
I want to consolidate my audio components and TV into one entertainment rack or stand on one side of the room. I have a vertical audio rack called(?)"Just a Rack" purchased from Audio Advisor about 15 years ago It is well made, but I am sick of looking at it, and I also have less space in my living room. Therefore, I would like to consolidate audio and TV by using a TV rack or stand from Best Buys; I don't want to trade "vibration isolation" for furniture style and cuteness. The length of the unit is 61 inches which provides 5 inches of clearance from the either outer edge of the flat-screen to place my Rega turntable. Please advise before holiday free shipping ends. Happy Holidays!!! Jim
