Core Audio racks are excellent. I have Zoethecus wood racks for all of my electronics, they are very similar to Core racks. But for a turntable, isolation is important. Especially on a suspended wood floor. I use a metal VPI turntable stand filled with sand. My turntable sits on a maple slab with spikes on top of the VPI stand. Before I had the VPI I had my turntable on top of the Zoethecus. It was not a good solution which is why I got the VPI. The VPI is rock solid stable and I no longer have to tip toe so the record doesn't skip. If a wall shelf is not an option, a sand filled metal stand is the way to go.
Racks made of wood
Hello,
I recently got a new turntable (Audio Note TT2dlx) and am looking to find a piece of furniture for it. It's currently on a $20 IKEA table. A wall mount is unfortunately impossible, so I'm left with the option of a rack. It's a wooden floor. I'm interested in a rack made of wood because I think wood looks nice. I fell over the "Podium Reference" of maple from UK company Hi Fi Racks. Any thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
