I'm gonna get a real nice 4 or 5 space rack for my Revelation Tube Pre-Amp and effects. Anyone have any pics of any real nice ones. I dont really want SKB or the Carpet covered ones. I'm sure someone makes some beauties. I'm not sure if i like the 3 door racks or the kind with the front and back door that sets on stand or your speaker. Herby sets his right on top of his speakers. Anyone have any neat setups?? Email me or call. 614-316-1267

Here's one I built myself to match my pack-a-seat. I don't like the carpet covering either, so I used Fender vinyl on this one. Since the pictures were taken, I put my Shure in-ear monitor transmitter in place of the vented panel.

Gary, I have a Grundorf case that is an Anvil type case and well built (Grundorf owns Anvil). It doesn't have the side door but I don't need it. I have a jack for a computer type plug in power cord and a surge protector type power strip mounted on the bottom "lid". I also have a plate and jacks ror the speakers and a plate and jacks that can be used to bypass the preamp/effects and go directly to the MosValve 500 power amp input and I also have another plate and jacks that are a "recording" output from my Rocktron Preamp. I also have a 6 inch round speaker baffle on each side for air vents.

Gary, the best bang for the buck that I have seen in new racks is from Oddysey cases. In any case, be sure and get a case with real ATA recessed hardware (no snagging on the furniture or back of the car), and not the outside snap-latches or the tiny fake ATA recessed junk. If you know what to look for ebay can be a fine source for good Anvil racks but 90% of what is there is new and shoddy stuff, made to look good in small photos but not what you want to live with for the next ten years.
