Default AV Racks

I need a new av rack for some of my new equipment as my tv stand doesn't have enough space. The one I had in mind is in this picture, http://www.tonestudioav.com/images/showroom70.jpg, but I have no idea brand or model. Anyone have any online sites to these types of racks? Thanks

Same here. Over the summer, I'm reorganizing my stand. As in, getting rid of it. With wall-mounted TVs, TV stands become useless eventually! You need A/V racks. It's 48" width is too small. I'm thinking I'm simply going to get an angled center channel stand, and a pair of these flanking it instead:



Something like that, short, with only 2-3 shelves each, in a piano black or nice cherry, is my goal to find.

Where'd you find that rack, as it would essentially match my current stand and it's nice for hiding cables?

Hi Alex,

Take a look at the Adona Racks on this website below; they have a lot of options:

http://www.adonacorporation.com/audiorack.html

Adona made all of my racks and amp stands including a specially made rack for my TV and many of the additional components. An example of their racks in my system is the one below holding my Analog system which is model AV45G 3 tier Rack in black:



If you decide to go forward with Adona's racks, go through their ads on Audiogon and speak with Paul directly. You can mention my name and that I highly recommended their system. Their platforms are usually a granite/mdf material with a special adhesive that allows both materials to be used together and nullify each materials audio weaknesses. They are basically neutral sounding. If you want, you can load the frame with lead shot. I may do that once I move. The stands are extremely rigid and stable once they are assembled. They offer a variety of colors, designs, and materials. Each shelf supports 300 pounds.

Rich

I want cheaper ones, and a pair of them, but that's the basic concept.

Ah, they're too damn expensive. I need the cheap option, a max height of 24", width of at least 18", two-three shelves, max, and for it to be in piano gloss black or cherry veneer/stain/fake wood cover only to match, with wire management. Picky, picky.

I bought a pair of VTI 6-shelf audio racks from Stands and Mounts. They didn't charge for shipping and they deliverd in two days.
