Placing Cyrus kit in an equipment rack

[Miker]

I'm looking at the various equipnent racks and am wondering whether I can place a Cyrus prevs2 and 6power, or two 6powers, directly on top of each other without adversely affecting the sound quality. I will also have a Cyrus CD8x, a phono stage and an LP12 TT to place in the equipment stand.

My reason for wanting to do so is to reduce the number of shelves required and hence the height of a piece of furniture which my wife is not too happy about.

Hi, most pre/power equipments are stackable so I wouldn't worry too much. I would make sure that cd player is sit as level as possible, it shouldn't matter too much but just for a piece of mind.
LP12, however, is the most important one here, spirit level jobie to squeeze every single note out of them.

Have a look at hifiracks.co.uk - he builds bespoke stands

cyrus make a custom rack for their kit don't know if that helps but the lp12 must be well isolated and level,i have a wooden floor and it took me an age to set up but the benefits are worth the trouble.if you can the lp12 should have it's own table but then it's not wife friendly too many racks.good luck,grgeory.

Thanks everyone. Hifiracks looks promising and should get the approval of my wife.

I'm just about to place an order with Hifiracks. Has yours come yet? If so, how long did it take and what did you think of the product?

It got damaged in transit so he's making me another, so I'll let you know next week.

That's bad luck. Could you make an assessment from what turned up, or was it matchsticks?
