component order on a rack?

Alright I want to make sure I am not overlooking what is the obvious to so many others, but is there a "best" order for placing audio separates on a rack. I have five shelves. It is a Michael Greene rack I recently got used. I was planning on putting my turnatble on top, tuner next, cd player, preamp, amplifier. Is this the best? I trying to do things right so any advise would be helpful.

another caveat re: component placement: if you are using a separate phono stage or a
preamp with a built-in phono stage, it should be placed in close proximity to the source
and as far away from the amp as possible. in my experience, it is ALWAYS better to place
your amp(s) as close to your speakers as you can get them and as far away from your
source(s) and preamp as your environment and budget for wire permits. -cfb
