Zoethecus makes two different audio equipment stands, one for amps and one for other electonics. The essential difference is the amp stand has double crossbars which give greater support to heavier devices. I own one double amp stand and two component stands; one a triple and one a quadruple.
The shelves for amp stands are all the same, except for size. There are three shelf types available for component stnads. I have only the zpods for both.
I find that they are very solid, quiet and as good looking as "equipment stands" seem to be. Yes, I know, there are the drop dead good looking ones that a new car is slightly cheaper than. One upgrade I found was brass feet which seem to improve mid-bass slightly.
I have had other stands and likely will stay with Zoethecus in the future. It seems that others have answered the price thing.
I've never heard nor read anyone trashing a Zoethecus stand.
