Salamander Video Racks


I am looking at a few of the Salamander video racks (Archetype, TV40 and others) but have read a few negative reviews on other Salamander products. Anyone have any experience with Salamander?

I have a Triple 20 with 3 doors. Serial #1 in the whole USA BTW. Does that make it a collectable? ;)

It holds my whole system, such as it is, with a 43" Samsung DLP TV and my TT on top. I agree with the above posts about care when assembling, awkwardness of moving shelves etc. OTOH at least you CAN move the shelves. I've done it twice when components changed and it's no harder than changing out an engine on a car without using a hoist. ;)

BQ and finish are quite good and it looks nice enough for most living rooms. One downside compared to more expensive racks is that it's a bit ringy. Tapping on it or shutting a door carelessly while the TT is playing sends a lot of feedback to the stylus. Still, I'm not sure I could do any better for the money and also have it look as nice.

Eddaytona, you CAN add a door (or shelf) without disassembling. Just order the "Easy Add Drop In Nuts". You won't need to do any more than perhaps move a shelf up or down to accomodate the hinges.
