Has anyone had any luck with Lovan equipment racks?


Found a Lovan equipment rack in what looks like very good condition on Craigslist for $200. The whole fit and finish seem very top notch, but for that price is it just better to go for a Salamander Designs rack? The black MDF five-rack version goes for $294.99 on Amazon and I get Prime shipping.

It's almost $100 more, but it's brand new and with the Lovan I can't really gauge the quality without seeing it in person. The Lovan does have seven shelves compared to the Salamander Designs' five, however, I only have my turntable, integrated amp, and CD player to worry about right now. May add a dedicated preamp and power amp later on with dedicated phono section, but that would leave me with five shelves taken up out of the seven.

Any input really is appreciated! Any other suggestions would be great so long as they're below the $300 mark!

Had one for around 5 years and very satisfied with it.

I've upgraded the turntable and amp shelves to 3/4" mdf

I also added sorbothane damping to the struts between the posts to stop them ringing.

They do a great job of eliminating vibrations.
