    CRASH! new receiver on the floor, wires everywhere

    Woke up this morning to a sudden crash coming from the living room. I ran out to find my 7 month old receiver on the floor. My 30 year old stereo rack had given up. Two of the shelves quit. The DVD recorder was still hanging on by the TV cable, but the receiver had made it to the floor. Good thing it was on the bottom shelf. Everything seems fine but I'll need a new rack. Anyone know where to get a good one that won't break the bank, or my system? I like the ones with glass shelves. Best price I have found so far is about $200USD. Only needs 4 shelves.

    Thank you for any input or leads.

    Do Audio Advisor and 'wont break the bank' even belong in the same sentence?

    They seem to love those $400 1' RCA cables

    Here's a few to sample:

    There is a whole lot more selection if you get away from the glass shelves though.

    They don't seem too bad. But I have found better deals on other sites.

    Here are a few front runners so far.

    HMmmm.... All good points.

    By the way, how about those new pics? How's your new room coming along?
