As a general rule most rigid stands and racks don’t isolate. They exacerbate the vibration problem - instead of reducing structureborne vibrations rigid stands and racks amplify them or facilitate their transmission. The trick is to decouple the component from the floor, either by employing the ubiquitous mass-on-spring technique or by employing a wobbly non-rigid structure like the Flexy Stand of yore. The more rigid you try to make the stand or rack the better transmitter of vibration it becomes. Or you can employ a rigid stand or rack and isolate each component on it separately using the mass-on-spring technique.
