Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms

Folks,

I am having trouble justifying another $7,000 for the lowest priced HRS frame, to accommodate my expensive M3x Harmonic Resolution Systems platforms.......around $2,500 each. 

While I understand that the frame and the platforms work as a "system," I currently place the M3x platforms and nimbus couplers, on a low-cost salamander rack......with decent results.

Has anyone had good results using HRS platforms on a high quality solid wood rack......walnut for example?

This would save me about $4,000 if it works.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

IMO, absolutely no way to know whether you will prefer the sound. without a demo.  Any dealer selling racks at those prices should be able to demo the difference between a component with and without the benefit of the rack.  IMO, if I could not hear a profound difference in the demo, I would stay with what I have.

My dealer sold those racks, but I never specifically demo'd them.  But if the cost of your system justifies the investment, 7k is not much compared to a component upgrade.  As Chris Koster, formerly with Naim told me - the Fraim (rack) is the icing on the cake, but first you need the cake.  I have to agree.  But I have really heard great things about the HRS stuff, so hopefully you'll be happy with your purchase.
