1. Should standard or shock cases be used for things like eq's, media players, compressors? I'm looking at table top size, 4-10U. They would not be shipped.
2. What about amp racks?

Tyler,
If you were touring extensively and concerned with more fragile hardware a shock case may be the way. For regional use standard cases of good quality are pretty much the way to go. There are many very good manufacturers to choose from. I use Road Ready and they have never let me down.

Shock cases = bigger, heavier.
EQs, compressors, go with standard.
Media player, good question (hard drive involved?).
If it ain't on wheels, I suspect I'd go with standard.
If you're transporting it personally (versus employees or, worse, union hands, who didn't pay for the gear in the rack), I'd go with standard.
Cheers,
Randy Hyde
