How much difference does an anti-vibration audio rack make


Hi,

I have just put together a Hi-Fi system. It's a two channel system consisting of B&W 800D3 speakers, McIntosh C1100 C+T Pre-Amp and two McIntosh MC1.25KW mono blocks. I considered buying a carbon fibre anti-vibration audio rack from Bassocontinuo (Aeon 2.0) but did not finally end up buying it due to the fact that there were two many racks in my living room which houses my Hi-Fi system. I am currently using a lovely solid wood TV cabinet to house the above equipment.

Question is whether the system gives me a sub-par performance due to the absence of a specialist audio rack or the difference is immaterial. I could not try it to determine as the carbon fibre racks are not stocked by the dealer due to the costs.

Thanks

You need to get different friends. 😀 Just kidding, of course. Keep on truckin’! 🚶‍♂️
The Basso rack is approx US$4,500 for one 3 shelf rack. Its expensive and that is why I asked whether it would make a genuine difference. It looks beautiful and has a waiting time of 8 weeks for delivery. Anyways currently my flooring is wooden, the music system is on a solid wood (thick wood and very stable) TV cabinet between the two speakers. I have concluded that a good rack will make a difference for sure. Will try and incorporate it into my system in due course.
Geoff,  If you position the magnets at 45 degree angles in all three planes you can have horizontal as well as vertical isolation.
Steve, good luck with that. And what about the rotational directions? Easier and better to use springs and roller bearings, most likely.
