Depending on where you live, I custom build racks to user's needs (# shelves, height, width, etc.) and will deliver and set up with a reasonable radius of where I live. The shelves are all individually isolated and fully adjustable. An example can be viewed on my system page.
Racks, equipment and footers
I would like to get a new rack and isolation footers for the rack and/or equipment. The high-end stuff like HRS, might be best, but it's out of my budget. There are so many choices, especially of footers. I'm thinking of going with a nice enough wood rack for aesthetic reasons and footers under each of the components to maximize performance. The system is upstairs with a wooden floor. No turntable. Questions:
- should I put footers under the rack and/or just the components?
- What about spikes - to drain rather than springs, so I avoid springs interacting with springs
- if I'm going to put footers under each component, does the material, construction, weight, etc. of the rack still matter much?
- It would be cheaper to just put footers under the rack and leave the components with the rubber feet - is this less effective?
- Should I put the same footers under all the components, or is it mix-and-match?
Any thoughts welcome along with specific recommendations on footers.
