Silver or black Eiger-X?

the higher the rack, the more tumbling movement there is. Works similar as elatic stuff and "robs" the punch.
I d sort out that before anything
 
Not asking about my rack system. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. The space in my home is limitation. But I can make another thread on that and people can comment all day about it for stuff I already know

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.

Once you open the door for advice on your system...

well then my answer is DONT buy neither silver nor black as the pontential improvement wont really display soundwise.

again, the higher the rack,.....
but also, the lighter it is.....and the more brittle the stucture is,...., the more component it contains,...
but also..!!! right next to the sub sitting on the main field of vibration from the floor.

This system is king of microphonie obviously and there is space enough for a FAR better solution.

however, i dont really think you get it as ignorance often is stubborn, so please report back how it turned out.

A flexy rack uses threaded rods that are secured with top and bottom nuts to make adjustments to its wood shelves. Simple, but I think more secure and stable.

If your definition is correct, a flexy rack would be way more secure than a bakery rack.

well thx for the pic, it always helps a lot.

the washers on the board with the screws are great as it is a stable construction vs slippery application, and it does surpress vibration from the board.
That said, vibration from the floor will also easily travel and spread into the board.

imho, you got 2 excellent options to get it solved.
both ways you add a second board on top, same material, laminated together with bucky nanopaper inbetween.

option a you make holes in the seconds board where the rods are and then place the component on top.
The buckypaper will destroy vibration from below and from the component actively,
b, you make holes for the rods and the footers for the components.
The components are still sitting on the original board and the buckypaper works passiv as dampener.

best is b with a third board under the original board, also laminated with buckypaper.
The footers will be surrounded top and bottom.

All that said, avoid multishelves/tall racks. Singleplattforms are far superior if heavy enough
