I used heavy duty solid iron Lovan stands for my entire system. Each is filled with lead shot. Each stand weighs 80 lbs. My system consists of 9 stands, with the 10th used for a TT. The stands were purchased used off Craigslist some 12 years ago for less than $1k. But I did have to drive from Seattle to Portland to get them. My system has never been quieter.
Heavy duty amp stand, Sonic benefits?
Does an amplifier benefit from a sturdy well-built amplifier rack?
I'm trying to decide whether to buy a new amplifier rack. The one I have is kind of a light weight material made of plastic composite. I am looking at one rack that was made of steel and weighs about 100 pounds, name of the company is sound anchor. Looks like a nicely made amp.
I'm wondering how an amplifier benefits from resting on a Quality built rack or does it really matter?
