Rack Recommendations

I am not clear as to whether your budget is 1k because you doubt the worth of a good rack, or if that is what finances will allow. If it is the former, I would say consider investing more, and look at the lower level Adona racks. They provide a noticeable improvement is sound, and can be added to in the future if needed.

Salamander Designs might be a place to look. In particular, the Synergy Model 402 for the components you have. Many audio shops carry Salamander so finding a used/demo cabinet is a realistic possibility to save additional $$.

I understand your skepticism, but vibration control is the real deal. You have laid out a lot of cash on your components and would be well rewarded by a scientifically designed stand. I did extensive research and came to SRA Scuttle rack. It is very expensive, but the difference it made was worth it. The backgrounds got way quieter and imagining was greatly enhanced, not subtle by any means, a rock solid improvement, with no audible compromises to my ear. HRS is also very good if not better, but was prohibitively expensive 20K+. another option is to get a solidly built rack and SRA or HRS bases under your key components, Power amp first, then TT.

Tried to post this a few minutes ago, but . . ..

Here's a second vote for the Salamander racks. I have a 5-shelf model for the primary system and a 4-shelf for the secondary. Both racks are on casters - - a huge convenience.

I must give credit where credit is due...Chris at Timbernation built me a beautiful custom rack from scratch to my measurements. He also stained the shelves to match my speakers. Not only does is look great but is incredibly sturdy. As for sound and isolation there is no longer any need for footers or fancy feet just the stock feet. All this for under $1k built to extreme tolerances and easy to assemble.
