VTI Racks Any good?


I am looking for a new rack for my gear and just loathe the idea of spending more than my amp costs for a rack. And, I am not convinced that spending big bucks on a rack is worth it, anyway. In looking for a more reasonable alternative, I often run across racks made by a company called VTI. Here are a couple as listed on the “big board” Does anyone have experience with this brand and know if are of decent quality? Thanks?

4yanx, I bought the BL404, used it for a week and returned it. It's a POS. Not good at all. First time I experienced the rack screwing up the sound. It looks nice, but is cheaply made, very lightweight and you will need to spend more money on isolation devices because by itself, this rack sucks. So as I said I returned it.
Called cable company and bought a SolidSteel 5.4.
Night and day difference. No isolation devices needed. Sounds great.
Totally up to you to buy the VTI or not, but my advice would be not to buy it. Or at least if you feel the urge to try it, make sure you can send it back. I think I bought mine from racksandstands.com and they offered free return shipment for extra fee but it was reasonable.
Good luck.
