Anyone know what rack this is?

I have been exercising some self control on this thread, but since there seems to be some encouragement..........





I think Howie set us up with the tread title, anyway.

Dan -- I think I know what kind of racks those are -- definitely Critical Mass because as the their web site states "with enduring style and meticulous quality ready to exceed the demands of performance and pleasure".

Bob.......Definately!

Unfortunately, I don't believe Mrs. Howie will approve of the recommended testing and break-in required for complete owner satisfaction.

Hey guys, there is also this saying ... "anything more than a handful is a waste" ... plus the tracking weight would really put a pressure on the vinyl isnt it?

Trade in the Avid bro ... go for this and you have a full system ... sans CD which will be another hunt altogether. But really, are these amps having enough to power the Palladio Stradivari?

And back to our regular programming...

Found the (hi fi) rack!

G8 Isolation Table | Product Range | Living Voice

Living Voice G8 is the apotheosis of energy isolating equipment table design. Its massive main base plate and chassis is purpose cast in LG2 bronze. LG2 is comprised of 85% copper, 5% zinc, 5% lead and 5% tin and as such displays mechanical and electrical properties that make it the ideal material for this application. The LG2 bronze base plate provides a very low centre of gravity and is also effective at rejecting radio and high frequency energy.

The rigid 3 level monocoque shelving assembly is decoupled from the main chassis and floats freely as a unit on an adjustable three-axis elastomeric suspension system. This dynamic suspension system is housed within the three purpose cast bronze box section upright legs. The suspension system is adjustable, and when deployed in a nautical environment features excursion limiters and storm locks.
The 3 individual shelves are separately decoupled from the floating sub chassis on steel point contacts providing a further level of isolation. The premium hardwood shelf perimeters are braced with a rigid steel latticework that can support 250 kilos of equipment at forces of up to 8Gs.

The bronze base and uprights can be force patinated in a choice of finishes, from rich chocolate through to burnt umber, fiery orange and verdegris. The shelving can be profiled to any shape of the client's choosing from any premium hardwood.
