Suggestions for sturdy sub $2,000 audio rack


Greetings. Trying to get suggestions for a sturdy non-stacking audio rack with four shelves minimum but five preferred. I was almost set to proceed with an Atacoma Eco series. It is several "tables"  so to speak that stack upon each other. However a few days ago I purchased a Pioneer PL-90 vintage turntable in mint condition. It's huge at 24 in wide and weighs about 40 lb. I know it's one in a million but I can't bear the thought of this thing tumbling if somehow things get bumped into. That's why I want a rack that bolts together into one solid assembly. All suggestions welcome. Thanks

Depending on what you choose, and if you go standard or custom, Timber Nation might be able to get you a nice one for sub $2k.

Beat me to it. I have a timbernation rack that holds my 100lb Acoustic Signature. Chris is amazing and his work is impeccable!

I contacted a local woodworker and he is building me a maple rack with 3" and 2" shelves for $1250, two shelves, nice and low. If I wanted a third shelf, it would be a bit more, but still well under $2k.

Another + Solidsteel. Mine has 4 shelves, double width. Adding a 5th shelf would make it pretty high for a turntable. Each shelf can hold 220 pounds.

Happy with an Atacam rack I purchased a handful of years ago.

 

Solid as hell.

Massive rack by Odyssey Audio. I just got a 4 shelf rack. This thing is sturdy and heavy. Beautiful walnut veneer shelves.
