Where do you have your rack?

After reading Jim Smith's book, I moved my rack to the sidewall. There is a lot that I like about it. Easy access to source components and to the volume as long as you run a preamp. But, I feel like the long interconnects are the weakest link in my system and that it does not give me much flexibility.

I'm about to move to an integrated amp and am thinking about moving my rack behind and between my speakers so that I can keep using my best interconnects. Any thoughts/experiences?

Have a look at my system on 'Done for now'.

I spent a long time moving everything around to optimise the sound. Without a doubt, moving the rack to a side wall makes a tremendous improvement to soundstage, imaging and resolution. I had a 50" plasma and AV rack between my speakers at one time and was amazed at the improvement once I seperated the hi fi and AV systems and moved the AV to another room.

My interconnects are 3m long and the speaker cables are 3.6m.
