Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack


The supply chain issues have certainly sucked. I am waiting for the LAST piece of my set up.....my rack. I’ve been waiting over a year for all my components to come in and the rack has been the longest wait. Please tell me it’s worth the time and $$$ or offer other options for consideration that may be more available. My brother offered Critical Mass but I am trying to save a few bucks, and not clear if they have the same supply issues. Appreciate your thoughts in advance.

I have Mapleshade equipment rack and amp stands: https://shop.mapleshadestore.com/SAMSON-Equipment-Racks_c_24.html

Based In Baltimore (MD) and using aged (natural sun) maple wood sourced from the Amish in PA. Some people find them ugly. I love them aesthetically. Subjective. Performance wise, I think they have no peers at the price range (then some)

@dodgealum :

Sorry guys, expensive racks are for suckers or folks with more money than sense who want added bling factor to impress their buddies.

🙄🙄🙄. You naysayers never disappoint. Isolation, resonance control, are real, and very objective (meaning: measurable). If you group yourself as a an objective dude, even if you measured nothing in your life (other than reading ASR), you should read more

Admin, 

 

Can you private message me and tell me what profanity was used?  I have no recollection of using any profanity in the post.  I'd seriously like to know what was removed.  If I slipped up and indeed used profanity, I am truly sorry and regretful.  But again, I am at a lose to remember ANY profane language used.  Thank you.

No horse on this race, but judging on what you wrote, I personally implied genitals (I.e male dick) from your post. Maybe my mind is a bit perplexed, but it is what it is. The moderator likely had same thoughts:

My system was TOTALLY transformed with my stereo equipment "rack" setup. Four cinderblocks and multiple 2 x 4’s. The most wooden sound you ever heard...

 

 

 

Oh Allen my friend 😂😂😂. Wooden, “rack🙂😙😙😙” in brackets 😂😂, I got you. And 1985? That like 40 years ago 😂. No worries. Stay hard and strong 😉 in the new year! Keep wooden, the wood burning!

It’s all good. Just say the purchase is excused by aesthetics. No claims on SQ, and you will be fine. Even the hardcore objectivists (Amir, Cin Dyment, Ethan, ASR militia, Archimago, etc.) will forgive you. 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️😉😉😉
