Hi All,
Ever since the very sad demise of HiFi Racks earlier this year I have been looking for a replacement HiFi Stand brand, now as we all know there are a lot of racking brands out there but when speaking to my Accuphase Rep about this he suggested I should look at Lateral Audio Racks which turned out to be a great suggestion as they had been working on the new Aria range with release a few months away which seemed to be exactly what I was looking for so I placed the order and it all arrived this week and I really couldn’t be happier.
A lot or racks, in fact most do look like HiFi Stands, and there is a reason for that to get the best performance from your kit but where HiFi Racks won was that their stands were made of solid wood and looked like furniture rather than a HiFi stand, These new lateral Aria stands bridge that gap really well, yes they look like a rack but have a real simple elegance to them and being wooded shelves helps soften the impact but they also have a couple of neat touches to maximise the performance of the rack like the bracing under each level and the way the legs are attached to help stop any vibrations.
So in summary they are the perfect blend of style and performance so a win/win really.
