I have two stereo racks.
One is short, that my turntable sits on, and the other is tall, that holds all my other gear (Preamp, CD Player, SACD player, CD Recorder, Tuner).
I clamp on one of the little Ikea lamps (see link below) onto the top shelf (about at eye level), and it overhangs (somewhat) the turntable. It swivels, and it has a snake arm, so it can be positioned anyway I like. The transformer is a wall wart, so it is kept well away from the rest of my equipment, so no hum problems. One thing that is really cool, is that the halogen light is bright enough to put a reflection up onto the ceiling, so you can watch the record spinning around.
(Plus it looks rather nice, and goes with my modern furniture that the wife picked out. Always nice to have a high WAF!)
My two cents worth anyway.
Good Luck in your search!
