Cheap amp stands?

Planning to re-arrange the position of my system, one thing i want to do is get the power amp off the main rack. It doesnt need to be there and would be handy to have it closer to speakers.
So, amp stands, whats available and whats good/not good.
DIY is also an option, maybe metal frame with stone top?

 

I use 20mm thick arcrylic platform with spikes for my very heavy 150lb amp and it sounds wonderful, much better than glass, metal or stone.
Cheers

 

Where did you get the acrylic?
Did you compare to stone etc..

 

Metal frame with glass top.

 

I wonder what that would be :rds2:

I dont think they fit with the cheap plan to well though.

 

Andy-

Mine was £20 for the frame, £13 for the granite, and not a lot for the spikes.

 

Now thats cheap Isaac,
Is the frame steal?
where did you get that made?

 

I had it made by a local welding shop. It is steel, and needs painting (which I will get around to sometime when I have somewhere to paint it).

 

Looks nice.
Ill look for some local places to get prices.

 

I got them made for me at £110 each. I have tried stone and the acrylic sound much warmer and dynamic compared to harsh and clinical for stone.

 

Isaac...how can I upload a photo????

 

You can't, or not one that size anyway. Isaac's hosting that himself and linking to it from here.

 

Damm......I want you guys to see the polish Arcylic platforms. They are stunners..

 

Class A
Mail me the pictures and i can host them for you

There's someone on ebay selling acrylic platforms with bubble spirit levels and sorbothane feet for £50 or so. I thought about getting one to experiment with, but couldn't afford it.

 

I send it again....do u have space for over 2 mb?
