I would get ideas from the Timber Nation site and similar places. Then I’d commission a local craftsmen to build it from a hardwood that pleases you. Also consider if you want it modular/ stackable or just one solid build. I’d also consider keeping it somewhat low and open to avoid reflection and aid in cooling. And then floor isolation , spiked or footers. I’ve also spotted some home built racks that are heavy metal plumbing items and laminated or solid wood combined. They have a pretty solid build and a retro stream punk look. My personal taste runs to a nice walnut item with a Watco finish. I’d love to see what you settle on , please post.

3 Level, 40-44" wide, Well built for Isolation-Gear Stand-Where/Who?
I am moving and leaving behind my $135 three level Walmart TV/Stereo stand.
I want three levels but wide enough to offer the flexibility of possibly
putting two items on one shelf. Forget the TV portion.
Here is what will be in use:
-Balanced Power Transformer- Size of bigger Integrated only 55lbs- Bottom shelf
-ANK 4.1X DAC -Size of a even bigger integrated. 30lbs or so-Middle
-Innuos Zen 3 Mk2 Streamer/Ripper/Storage . A smaller piece. 20lbs or so-Middle
-Pass Labs INT25 -55 lbs -Top
So that is 4 items and I only want it 3 shelves high. The DAC and Streamer can live
on the same shelf I think.
Budget $1,500 max. Used is fine.
Something with vibration control built engineering is a plus.
Something good looking also important.
Ideas???
