Usage Notes & Recommendations
Ideal for setups with five components (e.g. CD player, DAC, streamers, amplifiers); helps organize your system with enough vertical space (≈ 220 mm) per component.
Place heavier equipment on lower shelves to ensure stability. Use the included stainless steel spikes and floor discs to properly level the rack and protect flooring.
Ensure good ventilation around components, especially power amps or gear that generate heat.
Care & Maintenance
Use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe the aluminum poles and steel hardware; avoid harsh chemicals.
Clean MDF shelves with lightly damp cloth, then dry immediately. Tighten all screws and hardware periodically, especially after moving or stacking heavy components.
Use floor protection discs under spikes when placing on delicate flooring.
