Do you like your Sanus, VTI, or Salamander rack?


I'm looking at all of these since I want to move the equipment into the closet. The VTI looks like the best choice for my needs, but some of you have complained in other threads that the shelves are thin, the paint easily scratches, and they show their low cost Chinese quality. Also, the posts don't even line up on top of each other without a bit of bending, etc. Not very confidence inspiring. Now, What I really want is a full blown Samson from Mapleshade, but the cost is simply out of reach for me. The Salamander shares it's infinite adjustability, but looks so flimsy with those 5/8" posts and thin shelves. Is this rack sturdy and solid when bolted together? Using analog, I want rock solid rigidity. The Sanus looks like it might be better in this regard, but a bit less configurable. What do you think? Any experience with any of these? Please chime in and enlighten me. My ancient solid welded Target is probably better than any of them, but doesn't have enough space, or height. I miss Target, they seem to have vanished from the rack scene.

Those FL Terrazo over concrete floors can only be cured by the thickest WOOL rug you can afford over all the entire listening area. Period.
I use Salamander Synergy racks to house my 2-channel and HT systems. My only complaint is entirely aesthetic. Dust collects in the aluminum post channels and looks unsightly. Maybe Salamander should consider a black rubber or plastic filler strip for the posts that would prevent dust from collecting.
I have a VTI that is very solid, but scratches easily. Good enough, easy on the pocketbook. Seems I'm getting to the point where it's not as easy as it once was to hear very subtle differences when trying various tweaks. In one way that's a good thing, since I'm not spending as much to get that extra pinch of better sound. But my hearing seems to getting worse. It's not bad, just not as good as it once was. I'm nearly 57.
