Placement of components in audio rack

I currently have from bottom to top, on individual shelves in an open rack stand: amp, pre-amp, CD recorder, CD player, turntable on top. This is probably a pretty normal set up, but wondering if anyone has messed around with the order and found any significant improvement? Also, I plan on adding a tuner to the mix. My past experience has been to put the tuner away from all other components for best signal; like in another part of the room with long interconnects. Thoughts?

The other thing to consider(within reason of course) is to arrange the components so that the heavier articles are closer to the floor.That way the vibrational energy that will invariably enter the rack will contribute less to the amplitude of the vibrations that will operate on the rack(shorter pendulums).
