Tube amp on the floor or on the rack?


I just bought a BAT VK-60 tube amp yesterday and now I
need to re-arrange my set-up. I don't trust putting
the amp on the floor, so can I put it on the top shelf
of my rack? Every tube amp on a dealers showroom is on
the floor. Any particular reason?
Thanks,
Dave

I've got a mcintosh mc2102 mounted on the top rack of a schroers and schroers lamda, which is a simple steel frame with glass shelves. The spacing between the shelves is not adequate to accomodate the amp so I put it on the top shelf. Very family friendly and can support the nearly 100lbs of the amp, could be a problem if you're an analog type with a turntable though. This amp is so beautiful it just begs to be seen, as do most tube amps these days.
