What's the greatest bargain in audio racks these days?


Hi,

I'm thinking of replacing my Crate & Barrel stereo cabinet with a proper audio rack that'll take up less space, produce fewer deleterious reflections and make cable management easier. Some of the prices asked for high end audio furniture have made my head spin. 

Any suggestions for good stuff at more down to earth prices?

I should add that it needs to be sturdy enough to accommodate my SOTA Sapphire turntable (which is a heavy beast) and my Audio Note Kits "Kit 1" amp (which weighs in at around 55 pounds).

Thanks in advance!!!

Forget about the Salamander, especially with turntable. It's really budget stuff not audiophile. Definitely not sturdy enough and resonates like hell. I am using one for now but my turntable is on the maple block which is on the floor. Good maple rack would be fine, as others said.
+1 for Timbernation. Great rack at an affordable price, and great service as well. You can see mine on my system page.
Yep me too, I'm on page two of customer pics second row down far right.  Recently had Chris @ Timbernation make me a second clone rack and matching amps stands.  Turned out beautiful as usual and has made surplus out of all my footers and isolation tweeks. 
Here on the 'Gon there are several woodworking guys that sell their wares. Some pieces are really beautiful!
