Turntable on top, next is the preamp cuz ya fiddle with it quite often (and you don't want to get on all fours to adjust the gain or change input selection), next is the CD player (for the same reasons as the preamp), then tuner, and finally the amp on the bottom shelf.
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.
