Exploring the Benefits of Audio Racks and
Stands for Organizing Your Sound Equipment

We have now looked at most of the core elements of a good audio   rack.  So let’s look at some additional   features that can improve your comfort or aesthetics.

Recording and DVD   racks

For the most part, CDs and records have disappeared from modern   society.  That makes them all the more   valuable to those of us who have large collections of them.  Despite the fact that we probably haven’t   used them in a while, CDs and records add a special aesthetic to any audio or   A / V room.

Be able to symmetrically arrange your collection using your racks  

Drawers

Every audio or A / V room has a number of floating miscellaneous   items that, if not properly stored, can make your space look disorganized and   chaotic.  Buying an audio rack with   drawers is an important step in the right direction if you want to keep your   room safe and preserve the aesthetics of your room.

Cable management   connectors

Cable management was addressed in our earlier section on kids for   safety reasons, but deserves its own brief discussion in terms of   aesthetics.  If there are several   components, several cables must necessarily run back and   forth.

For example, audio receivers have a cable or two running between   them and each speaker they are connected to.    This does not apply to power cables, connections to DVD players and   cables to other audio devices.

As you can probably tell, there are likely to be a variety of   cables that will accompany your audio or A / V setup.  So it is important that you can manage   them.  It’s easy for cables to get   incredibly unruly and detract from the aesthetics of your space, not to   mention the possibility of them generating feedback as they   cross.

Cable management ports in an audio rack are essential if you want   to minimize stress and keep your space organized.  Cable management also makes a significant   contribution to avoiding tripping hazards and falls due to unmanageable   cables.  We therefore strongly   recommend them if the elderly share your home.
