A/V Rack Solutions for different needsStandard EIA/310-D 19-inch equipment racks are available from various makes and come in all forms. Furthermore, there is a never-ending list of rack accessories - such as cable managers, rack mount shelves, etc., available from different manufacturers, and that are fully compatible irrespective of brand. This makes standard 19-inch rack systems the most versatile that you can find; you can easily customize a racking solution to suit individual needs. Unfortunately, standard 19-inch equipment racks often take an industrial look that is difficult to disguise and integrate with the rest of your home theater room decor. In other words, while these systems can do a superb job in terms of product functionality, yet it is best that you leave these rack solutions outside your movie theater room; instead, house a standard AV rack in a media closet. Besides, while prices vary considerable online, yet high quality 19-inch equipment racks do not come cheap. Expect to spend anything from at least $1,500 to well over $3,000 and more for a 44U rack complete with cooling fans, perforated support shelves, AC distribution panels, and cable management. Whether this is justifiable depends on the nature of the home theater installation you have. What about nonstandard 19-inch Racks?There exist several 'relatively cheaper' options that would still do a great job in a typical home theater installation. True that these come somewhat cheaper than standard 19-inch racks, but a good quality 5-shelf audio video equipment rack would still cost anything up to $800 and even more, depending on model, finish and brand, size and load bearing capacity. So let's see what's on offer within this price bracket... The Salamander Synergy Range of A/V Furniture
At 23¼ inches wide, the Synergy 402 is perfect for all forms of imaginable home theater gear.

And if you want something for that 'Extra' Touch of Class?Well, one such innovative line of media cabinets available from the Magnolia Home Theater Stores in New York and Los Angeles is the Maria Yee line of handcrafted eco-friendly BambooTimber™ and Ghinmu wood. We had reviewed this exclusive line of media cabinets way back in 2007. Maria Yee media cabinets are more than just some piece of AV equipment rack. Rather, it represents a line of trend-setting designs in home theater furniture - simple yet unique - that provides a perfect merge between functional media cabinets and elegant design, to bring out the best in any home entertainment system. More information in our review article: Home Media Cabinets for that Unique Finishing Touch. Another line of AV equipment racks we have just reviewed is that one from AVRAK. AVRAK are mainly renowned for their range of AV rotating equipment rack systems. The AVRAK system comprises a full range - from stationary, rotating, pullout and rotating, freestanding with rotation - of professionally designed AV racks that are of outstanding quality. Admittedly, AVRAK is not the only company in the market that offers quality rotating rack systems. What differentiates AVRAK racks from the competition however is their high degree of adaptability, available customization options, and a meticulous attention to detail; the result is an extremely stylish and functional design.
