Audio Rack Opinions


After a fair amount of research, I have landed on 3 candidates for upgrading my audio rack:

  1. Symposium Acoustics Foundation Ultra 
  2. Core Audio Plykraft 4L
  3. Butcher Block Audio Rigid Rack with 4 shelves 

This will be used with the following system:

Palmer 2.5i Turntable

  • LFD NCSE Mk3 amplifier
  • Sutherland Little Loco phono stage
  • Oppo UDP 203 CD player
  • Palmer turntable power supply
  • This sits on hardwood floors to the left of my Harbeth speakers which are Tontrager stands

I am not in the market for a $10k plus rack, but would love to hear opinions on the above racks or any other suggestions  

 

Thanks in advance

I highly recommend Core Audio PlyKraft 4L. The build quality and customer service is outstanding. As you already know unlike any other rack, the shelves of PlyKraft 4L are preloaded with their unique blend of damping materials to create a high mass, low resonance core. Each product from Core is hand built so you have infinite room for customization. For example, you can have top shelf built extra wide to accommodate the turntable power supply. Future expansions is also possible by adding new legs and extra shelves.

I have owned Core Audio PlyKraft and Isolation Platforms for 15 plus years. As my configuration changed few times, I never have to worry about starting over from scratch.
