Lovan: Stereophile recommended disappointment.


I just got a brand new Lovan amp stand and could not believe the feeble board that came with it. That thin board flexes under the weight of my 50 lb T4 isolation transformer bay!

The spikes were loose because the thread tapping is not within tolerances. I solved the problem by adding a washer. How can they call that an amplifier stand?

I got it for $67 on closeout (vs $149.95 list), but still leaves much to be desired.

So much for the "recommended component"--anyone wants to spend $400 on their rack?

Long live DIY.

About a year ago I bought a set of Lovan Sovereign racks because they look good. Only after I took delivery I discovered that they were poorly made, the legs were out of alignment in one or two of the shelves that I could not stack them up at all. My dealer ordered another set for me - and guess - similar alignment issue existed. Eventually he allowed me to mix-and-match the shelves until I was able to assemble a properly stacked racks. I have no problem with the wooden boards though.
