It is ready to order as it stands, made in Britain by Quadraspire, and every part of it can still be changed in our rack builder if your gear needs different spacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eKey Features of the Quadraspire SVTL 4-Shelf HiFi Rack\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eA Larger Slotted Shelf:\u003c\/b\u003e 25.4 x 22.0 inches of black bamboo ply, 2.2 inches wider and 3.5 inches deeper than the SVT.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSolid Aluminum SV Columns:\u003c\/b\u003e 32 mm curved columns made from solid aluminum, not tube, to dissipate energy quickly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSpacing for the Heavy Pieces:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.1 inches above the bottom two shelves for power amps and tube amps, 8.5 inches above the third, and an open top shelf for a turntable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e175 lb Per Shelf:\u003c\/b\u003e Each of the four levels is rated to 80 kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSpikes Included:\u003c\/b\u003e The bottom shelf sits 4.1 inches off the floor, and the rack is 35.6 inches tall overall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNo Parallel Lines:\u003c\/b\u003e Curved shelves and columns avoid the parallel surfaces that encourage resonance, the same idea behind most musical instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMade in Britain:\u003c\/b\u003e Quadraspire has built its racks in England since 1995.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWho Is Quadraspire?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuadraspire is a British maker of hi-fi furniture, founded in 1995 and now building racks in Hallatrow, England. Their argument is simple: what you place your hi-fi on affects how it performs. Quadraspire picks every material and shape to reduce resonance, with the stated goal of lowering the noise floor and opening up the soundstage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWho Needs the SVTL?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SVTL is for components that do not fit an SVT shelf. Between its columns it gives you 540 x 455 mm (21.3 x 17.9 in), against 477 x 368 mm (18.8 x 14.5 in) on the SVT, so a wider or deeper component has room to sit between the columns. The materials, the slotted shelf pattern and the 80 kg rating are the same as the SVT.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/quadraspire-svtl-shelf-dimensions-inline.jpg?v=1793298792\" alt=\"Quadraspire SVTL shelf dimensions, 645 x 560 mm top view diagram\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eWhy the Materials Matter\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach SVTL shelf is solid bamboo ply, which Quadraspire uses because it is strong and suppresses vibration where materials like glass resonate (it is also carbon neutral).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/quadraspire-svt-bamboo-ply-shelf-edge-inline.jpg?v=1793283435\" alt=\"Quadraspire solid bamboo ply, shelf edge close-up showing the laminated layers\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe columns and feet are solid aluminum rather than tube, because a hollow tube can ring while solid aluminum dissipates energy quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/quadraspire-svt-solid-aluminum-bar-stock-inline.jpg?v=1793283440\" alt=\"Quadraspire solid aluminum bar stock used to machine the columns\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShelves and columns are curved so the rack has as few parallel lines as possible, since parallel lines encourage standing resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/quadraspire-sv-tapered-columns-inline.jpg?v=1793283432\" alt=\"Quadraspire aluminum columns in five heights, side view\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eThe Spacing, Shelf by Shelf\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the floor up, this rack uses columns of 256, 256 and 216 mm, which is 10.1, 10.1 and 8.5 inches of clear space. The two lower shelves take the power amp or tube amp, the third has room for a tall integrated or a small tube amp, and the top shelf is open, so a turntable lid lifts all the way.
