Rack recommendations

i'm in the market for a rack. would prefer about 5-6 shelves, with wheels. i've looked at Pangaea, VTI, Salamander online. local dealers carry the latter. i just want something that's 1) deep enough for my amplifier and 2) relatively easy to move around (hence wheels)

are there other brands at similar price points that i'm missing? also, in your experience, do racks even make a difference to the sound? i'm a little skeptical but willing to be educated

I had mine made years ago so it must have been easier to get ahold of someone. Also, you needn't get a master craftsman to do the work. The one I got specialized in refinishing and made furniture as well. 

It took awhile to find someone and it was when I came across an ad for his work that I knew he was the person I needed.

All the best,

See if you can source a local carpenter to build exactly what you want. With all the downtime people have had, you could get a really good deal on something made to order. 
Just have them look at what you like, from online, and see what they can do for you. I had a beautiful media stand made with 1" thick maple, with African Padauk inlays ( he did it without asking) and those thick U shaped steel legs for around $375. He'd charge a heck of a lot more nowadays but I was his first, so he uses it in his ads. 

All the best,
