Quadraspire X-Ref L Amp Stand
The Quadraspire X-Ref L Amp Stand in black is one X-Ref L level on its own: the larger SVTL shelf, 25.4 x 22.0 inches in slotted black bamboo, on four bronze feet above a black Nextel X frame, standing on black aluminum feet with bronze spikes and top caps. It is rated to 175 lb and puts the shelf 6.3 inches off the floor, for a power amp, or a pair of monoblocks, too big for the standard X-Reference shelf. It is made in Britain by Quadraspire.
Key Features of the Quadraspire X-Ref L Amp Stand
- One X-Ref L Level: A black solid bamboo ply SVTL shelf, 25.4 x 22.0 in, 3.5 in deeper and 2.2 in wider than the X-Reference shelf.
- Bronze Under the Shelf: The shelf sits on four bronze feet set into a black Nextel X frame made for the SVTL shelf.
- Aluminum Feet, Bronze Spikes: Black aluminum feet and top caps, with bronze spikes.
- 175 lb Rating: The shelf is rated to 80 kg.
- 6.3 Inches to the Shelf: A big amp sits close to the floor with air on every side.
- One or a Pair: Order two for monoblocks.
- Made in Britain: Quadraspire has built its racks in England since 1995.
Why an Amp Stand?
Quadraspire's view is that what you place your hi-fi on affects how it performs, and that holds for the amplifier on the floor as much as the source on the rack. The stand is built like a level of the X-Ref L rack: the shelf rests on four bronze feet in a Nextel X frame, because Quadraspire found bronze and brass reduce resonance, and the feet are solid aluminum because steel tube can resonate. It also gets a heavy amp off the carpet and keeps the space underneath clear.
Buying It With an X-Ref L Rack
Add one or two of these stands from the Quadraspire X-Ref L 4-Shelf HiFi Rack page and each stand comes off about 10%, so the rack and the stands match from the floor up.
Build Your Own X-Ref L Amp Stand
This stand is black on spikes. In our builder you pick one of four bamboo finishes and spikes alone or with QC or QX7 floor protectors, as one stand or a pair. The feet and caps are black.
Quadraspire Amp Stands, Compared
How the X-Ref L stand sits among the Quadraspire amp stands. Each one is a single level of its rack, in black, with the Signature in black Nextel.
Pick the X-Ref L stand when an amplifier needs more than the 23.2 x 18.5 in shelf and you want bronze and the X frame under it. Stay with the X-Reference stand if the amp fits that shelf. Browse the racks in Quadraspire HiFi Racks.
