Solidsteel Racks

Putting aside the component racks, the Solidsteel SS-6 speaker stands look really good. The industry has been crying out for a quality set of monitor stands at an affordable price, for decades.

The normal stands you get around $200-300 are just rubbish, they all wobble even when filled up with sand or ball bearings. Then there seemed to be a big leap in price up to 3-4k for high end stands (I have Track Audio Precision 600 which are now unobtanium) and there was really nothing in-between.

If you use standmount speakers, you really do not know how good your speakers can be until you get them on quality stands.

Anyone with a Solidsteel Hyperspike HF rack putting anything on the floor under the first platform? I am considering this rack mainly because it has high clearance from the floor. I want to put my Torus RM15 power conditioner under the rack and hide the wires.

If anyone has done something like this, does it look bad when looking at the rack from the front? I like the fact that I can get away with a low height 2 shelf rack if I did not have to put the power conditioner on a shelf on the rack.

@yyzsantabarbara,

I did exactly that with my Solid Steel rack in my office.  I used a Furutech Power Conditioner under the rack, and it looks good and worked out perfectly.  I have a huge McIntosh MA6600 integrated sitting on the top shelf and it fits perfectly.

Thanks. I think that seals the deal and I will get this rack.

I only used the two ,I have for storage of my equipment.
