Just get one that matches the furniture.

I dont believe that the choice of rack has much to do with sound quality, but taste in furniture and decor.
If you are worried about vibrations, you can get rid of those other ways than blowing a fistwad of bills on a rack.

Just look for something versitile and pleasing to the eye.

There seem to be alot of people that well go round for round stating hat you need a $1000 plus rack. I personally have seen no evidence of any sonic improvement with one rack vs another. Just make sure you get one with open sides that allows plenty of airflow.
Honestly, unless you have the extra cash and see something you think would look slick in your house, dont bother.

if you are that worried about vibrations, install some seismic bolts on the feet. its not too difficult to figure out how.
You can get these from Greybar. they make telecomm equipment.

For all of you who claim that the rack makes all the difference in the world, im curious as to how you think the rack affects anything other than cosmetics. Seriousl,y im interested, im not just saying you are full of ****, im honestly curious
TWL, no need to get so offended here! You are more than welcome to disagree with me if you want. I really dont care. I dont see why you get so offended though. Maybe you need a vacation or something? You must be one of the "Veterans" huh? I noticed younger people dont get so "butt-hurt" quite so easily!!

I must be just another whippersnapper non-educated punk who has no taste in music huh? hahahahahahahahaha
have fun

"Tell ya what, back in my day audiophiles had to go out and get engineering degrees to understand this stuff cause there was no internet! all these young punks ride on the information of other peoplee and arent true audiophiles!"
hahahahahah

sure dude
I dont have to quantify anything buddy!

See, i am on my what, 6th AV rack? Ive never noticed any difference in sonics, thats all there is too it. I was talking from personal experience.So why would i need to quantify it?

"I like pepperoni on my pizza, not sausage" How can i quantify that statement?

or, "I did not see any fireworks last fourth of july" can that be quantified?

that statement was a statement of personal experience! its not like i said "There is no way in hell a different rack will make something sound different, anyone who believes otherwise is a liar and child of deciet"
hehehehe
