  Pretty sure the $1000 is just the DNA. Studios are $600 and the Salamander is $300. That would have been a helluva deal if it was a grand for all items!

  Ok, so I gave up on the idea of finding a Synergy 237 triple Walnut / black rail unit for $300-$400. I found this Bell'O PR11 unit for $250. The Mrs likes the look more so than the Synergy. Here's a pic... excuse my wiring, I'm planning to redo some things and tidy those up.

  ^Nice. We have a BellO rack and my personal concern and issue with it is the lack of support for the middle section which is an issue as my 78lb amp is there. It caused a 1/2" dip in the middle I had to shore up with 3 pieces of 2x4 painted black, 1 under the front middle and then one on each side of the two internal panels transferring the load better.
  
  That said, not everyone has a massive amp and heavy components either.
  
  Looks great for your situation though!

  Yeah, this one is nice but I don't know if I could pay retail for it. This one seems to bow in the middle a little? Maybe due to a TV being on it over time? I might put a wood dowel in the center? Who knows? It cleaned up the space nevertheless.

  Weekend Update: To save myself time, I’m not posting what they are anymore, just the links and locations
  
  Most of the time I’m limiting my posts to items 300 or less just as a FYI. These items may have been previously posted depending on how many weeks they have sat for sale.
  
  I'm also tagging folks nearby in case the are, or know of someone that might be interested. For all you CA folks, I totally forget who is where so if you want added to a given section in the future let me know.
  
  Alternately, if you'd prefer I not tag you in listing in your area let me know that via PM.

  It caused a 1/2" dip in the middle I had to shore up with 3 pieces of 2x4 painted black, 1 under the front middle and then one on each side of the two internal panels transferring the load better.

  
  The hell you say.

  
  The rack in question is NOT a salamander rack lol (which is why I want to replace it with one) pic below submitted as proof...

  I thought about that one too Bob, but it won't work for what I need either.

  Yep, this part of PA is gearing up for LL World Series and the 1st ever MLB game in town. Might be a good week to leave the area!

  @EndersShadow good stuff on this thread that you've started. I bought my Salamander from a Craigslist ad a few years ago so I know first hand about the many deals out there.
  
  On a side note, would you mind if I refer to you as Salamander from now on? JK
