custom built rack's.
ive looked at hunderd's of rack's within the last few weeks from all kind's of different manufacturer's & so far none will fit my needs,either they all are too weak or the shelve's are not spaced far enough apart to accomodate my amp's.
does anybody have a clue as to where to buy a rack that will hold the weight of several monster amp's & have shelve's that are spaced atleast 14 inche's apart,also the rack will need to be able to handle 800 to 1,000 lbs of gear safely.
im not oposed to having a rack custom built but im clueless as to what companies build to order & how long such an order would take or even the price range to have this done.
if worse come's to worse i have some super nice black walnut plank's that ive been saving for a special project that i could build my own out of but i would prefer to just buy a rack.
any ideas ?

You may also want to contact Pierre at Mapleshade. His Samson Racks can be customized a variety of ways http://www.mapleshaderecords.com/tweaks/samson.php |
You can also build a Salamander clone any way you want. These are extremely strong. You just need some threaded rod @ 3/4". For wood on mine I used a sheet of finish plywood. Cut it into four 2'x4' pieces and bolted it together. This is a double wide one that is just right for all the stuff I have. Being 24" deep it's plenty deep to set even a very large power amp(s) on. Putting the amps on bottom also helps stabilize it even more but it's strong as heck anyway. Another thing I like about this rack is that the shelves are adjustable. Cost to do it myself was under 200 bucks if I remember correctly. |
The Acoustic Dreams and the Symposium racks are built like tanks and look great. Also the Rix Rax racks are really nice and he does custom work, he will build you anything you want.

I ordered a Billy Bags Rack, Pro 1.5 and was able to specify the spacing of each shelve without any extra cost. You could order one with a 30" space, then 2", then 7 1/2", then 4 inches, etc. etc. They do charge for more odd designs. I was very pleased with the fast shipping to my dealer. I am very happy with it. The Salamander Synergy would not hold up to the wt. you are talking about but they are attractive racks. |
