Just need to connect; speaker cables, trigger cables and fan cables, and of course, install the side panels. Then, put power to it and let'r rip!!
The project is coming along nicely. I left room over the power conditioner as I will later add a second one.
The rear of the rack shot, posted especially for @EndersShadow. And yes Dan, the AC Infinity fans work great, all rear exhaust with the open back of the rack. I hope you like the effort on cable management so far

Is that room on a concrete slab floor? When I moved to a home with no basement or crawl space years ago everything improved audio-wise, and no weight limits.
Nice rack. -
Very clean! Nice!

Nice rack.
Thank you!!
The entire house is tile floor. The three bedrooms are carpeted. I lucked out. The house was a rental when I first moved in. One of my uncles owns a carpet business and laid new carpet in it prior to the move in. The AC units inside and out were replaced while I was renting. When the owner told me he was going to sell it, he gave me first consideration. My mom was a top broker in S.A. and helped me with her connections to get the deal I got. One of my cousins owns a title CO and was the closer. One of my other uncles previously owned the house and suggested I go look at it to consider renting it. The rest is history

Here's a pic of the oak shelf I made for the DAC, well, I cut the board, fastened the end piece and clear coated it. Waiting on a pair of .06m XLR's so I can complete the install and button it up.

Wow, that's a lot of hook-ups. Well done.
What do you think all that gear + the rack weighs? 800+ lbs. maybe?Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Thanks Tony!!
Good question. The entire thing, rack plus gear, is right about at 500lbs, not counting all the mounting hardware, fans and cables. -
Looks good man! Cable management is about as good as you can get without longer cables.

@EndersShadow I know you're kidding, mostly lol, but c'mon over and give a listen, you may have a change of heart.
