Hi Briweve. I recently purchased one of SRA's amp stands, and have found it to be a worthwhile addition to my system. I am using it under an Air Tight ATM-2 amplifier. The most apparent differences are a reduction in the noise floor, improved low level resolution, and better imaging. The only other amp stand I've used is a Zoethecus, and the SRA is definitely a step up (the SRA was also about $75 cheaper). However, whether its worth it to you depends on your system - if you have a $1000 integrated, a $575 amp stand is not the best investment, but as a final improvement in a well set up system, it is unquestionably worth it. BTW, Kevin Tellekamp at SRA/Performance Coatings is a true gentleman - one of the nicer guys you'll meet in audio. Hope this helps.
