Your rack gave me a smile as that is exactly what I used about 14 years ago when I first setup my system in my basement utility room that became a finished dedicated room. We all start somewhere. Oh, and I would suggest Black.

Consider it a great first step that should bring a lower noise floor and some protection for your gear. In time, you can layer in more PCs to complete your package. Go for it.

Great job!

Here are a few things to consider off the top of my head. — Do you want to isolate the rest of the house from the stereo? If so, you could plan to use whisper clips, green glue and double 5/8” drywall. — Do you really need a 38’ long room? Perhaps breaking it up into two rooms, might...
