Buy something in black if that's what you need.
However I fail to see how a dark wood is going to offer up reflection issues.

No idea, don't see why not if you're intent on spending silly money.

Without a picture or two of your room, I don’t see how we can possibly know. Am I missing something?

There is plenty of shops that sell them, why don’t you just buy from another shop that has black if you are buying new?

Go with what you like 😁

I doubt as "AI ears" said it will offer up reflections.

I can go further than that as I have a beach wood entertainment cabinet directly below a TV which even as a brighter colour doesn't reflect any light being a nonreflective ruff surface as wood is it absorbs more light.

What can be a problem though with walnut (even treated) is fading or bleaching as it's sometimes called in sunlight especially if direct ie near a window etc.

I doubt it for an AV rack. I would probably go cheaper, they both look nice.

there must be some vibration absorbing difference?

If it is matt finished wood as the images above suggest then I doubt you’d be bothered by reflections. Inevitably you may get some scatter but I’m sure you’d soon not notice, unless you turn off every light source - I prefer background lighting but we are all different!

Our 55” OLED TV sits on a mid-shade oak unit and we get no reflection of light that I’ve ever noticed.

I don’t worry about stuff like that.
