X-level modular stand (12-modular version presented here) with 40 and 50 mm thick shelves covered in natural wood veneer (birch burl) . The frame color is golden brass. The frame contains quartz sand ballast (bolted holes in the legs make it possible to change the amount and kind of ballast). The structure consists of two kinds of separate modules (A and B). The structure consists of individual modules, which can be placed vertically (one on top of another) or side by side. The modules are separated by means of height-adjustable spikes and anti-vibration pads. The original set may be expanded by adding extra modules.
Upon customer request, it is possible to change the number of modules, their size and color, and the kind of decoupling.
Module A consists of a shelf supported by a frame with three round legs, which have one-sided (left- or right-sided, depending on which option is selected) handles of a system used to assemble B modules.
Module B consists of a shelf supported by a flat frame, which is to be assembled between two A-type modules (one of which needs to have right-sided handles, and the other left-sided ones).
ROGOZ AUDIO ANTI-VIBRATION AUDIO STAND 5SMX12/BBS
There was an improvement of the sound’s purity and transparency, and a better detail retrieval and more colorful presentation were noticeable when the Vertere landed on this rack. This improvement was primarily a result of a “blacker” background, or in other words of the lower background noise level, which is difficult to notice itself but impacts our perception of music. With both turntables on top of Rogoz I tried thumping and jumping around the rack to check whether or not it would influence playback. It didn’t, which proved a good isolation from even significant vibrations this rack provided.
I did a test with two tube preamplifiers too – my ModWright LS100 and Air Tight ATC-2. Placing them on 5SMX12/BBS shelves resulted on one hand with deepened saturation of sound that seemed even more natural, organic, on the other hand improved control and precision of presentation.
