I just placed an order for a SolidSteel 5.5 rack with Music Direct. Bes said it's on its way to US and should be here soon(they didn't have it in stock). I found no reviews on these, but they look solid and I like the design. We'll see when I get it. By the way, what do you fill with sand and what's the change in sound? Is it the cones that get filled or the posts? thanks.
Solidsteel racks any good
So I'm looking for a wide/twinbay rack for my gear, and wonder if the Solidsteel racks any good. I'm looking specifically at the H.6 and wondering if it's actually good at resonance control/isolation, or if it's just a slickly designed rack with little real effect?
Ideally I'd like something 60" in width and about 19" depth with 3 shelves (so bottom and middle shelf with open top) so I could put my TT, preamp, and CDP on top, and store the rest below. I looked at the BDI triple-width stand but wonder if it's more of a piece of furniture than anything else. Anyone have any recommendations for a solution that would provide adequate isolation using one wide rack?
Thanks,
Matt
