The future of audio isolation
This is a second generation version of our popular Nemesis AL audio rack. The intermediate shelves now incorporate the same independent support system used on the Adona Reference Series racks. These supports are machined from 1/2 inch thick solid billet aluminum. This method of support not only provides better component isolation but also offers a much cleaner cosmetic appearance than the more traditional horizontal beams found on other audio racks. In addition, there is a significant improvement in convection air cooling just as an added plus!

Our famous Multi-Element Granite Platforms:
The approach is simple and well executed. With just three basic material layers it is easy for us to optimize the performance and eliminate the "muddy" effect that occurs when too many layers are used in a constrained layer system. After all, if you need more than three layers, then you're probably doing something wrong in the first place.
Independent of component weight - whether it's a massive 300 pound amplifier, or a sensitive phono stage, the results are satisfying and predictable! Plus, they are tolerant to a wide range of after-market coupling devices - allowing you to "tweak" your system any way you like it.

The Frame Assembly:
The simple, clean design of this rack frame is based on just two basic components: the cross-beam and the column. Much like a childs erector set, these universal components allow you to design and build a rack having virtually any configuration you can imagine. And best yet, if your needs change, simply reconfigure it in a different way. With add-on accessories, a single width tower is easy converted to a double, triple or quad width rack. Or purchase taller columns and add more platforms as needed.
Frames and columns are available in back or silver!
The Platform Support System
These attractive shelf supports are machined from 1/2" thick, solid billet aluminum and weigh almost a half a pound each. Included with each rack is a set brass platform levelers. The support bracked themselves are threaded and will accept a wide range of aftermarket devices allowing you to direct-couple or float your platforms. devices.
The Connectors:
The patented, connectors make assembly a snap! The entire rack may be assembled using just one simple allen wrench. Rotating the socket-head screw causes the T-bar to retract, thus locking the cross-beam to the column.
The Columns
These heavy duty, 2 inch diameter octagonal columns weigh in at nearly a pound per linear foot. Aluminum is a good choice for audio rack columns since it transmits vibration energy quite well down it's longitudinal axis, where it is easily drained by your floor..
The Footers:
The primary function of spiking is to focus the weight of the rack onto an infinitely small surface area, although some floor finishes make the use of such devices impractical. Therefore, we offer optional floor discs, as well as glides and casters.
