quartz as shelving


Recently came across a quartz kitchen counter top at a friend's house.
Got the basic stuff from him, it is 93% quartz and 7% color and polymers. Under some sort of process this is vacuumed and vibrationed into a slab under 100 tons of pressure. Then they are kilned dry. Have a 10 year warranty. What is all this leading to?
Has anyone tried it with their racks or equipment?
What are some reasons why it may not work well?
and of course the converse.
If someone has it will save me the trouble of trying to find out what it would cost and how it might work first.
It is hot here and it makes me lazy, or perhaps more so.

Hard surfaces like marble, granite, glass and your quartz countertop are kryptonite to your stereo equipment.
Hard surfaces can work well as shelving as long as they are bonded securely to an acoustically inert substance such as MDF. As always it will depend on the weight and type of equipment you are placing on them as well. This is an area for experimentation.
redoing my bathrooms with quartz countertops. They are expensive. We managed to find some end pieces for about $1k, which is 5 foot by 2 feet. Its also heavy.
Lowens, So, how does your bathroom system sound with the quartz countertops?
Quartz and other hard surfaces will not drain unwanted energy from your equipment. The better equipment stands use wood like the stand Zargon uses. Check the photos of his system.
