Component racks

I am putting together a tube system and need a racking system for two turntables, and 5 tube components (pramp, 2 monoblocks, phono preamp, and cd player)and surge prtector. The only thing I know about racks is they come in a lot of flavors and can be very expensive. With tubes, they will more than likely have to be adjustable. I have two svelte shelves and two amp stands, 3 X 3 still points, 1 X 3 roller blocks and 1 X 3 roller block jr. that I am using with my current system on a wood entertainment system. Reading forums and threads has left me confused. I am open for comments and suggestions. Thank you.

The amps can have little platforms for themselves near each speaker.
If you get a TV sort of stand, then two TTs on top, pre and cd on middle shelf, and phono and surge on bottom.
Also if you get some other doodad the surge protector can go on the floor. I would get a double wide(TV sort) stand taller than the usual TV height so the CD is easy and the TTs are too.
If worried about expensive stand, find a nice but cheap(er) one with hollow tube legs and fill them with sand.
It is what I have.
