Monolith 4 Tier Shelf Audio Stand - Open Air Storage, Modular Design, Sturdy, Compatible with Bose, Polk, Sony, Yamaha, Pioneer and Others, Black

I purchased this stereo shelf as a temporary solution until I build my own custom shelving system. This rack has delayed my project because it works so well, and it is not horrible to look at, either. It builds quite easily, all parts were included, is incredibly sturdy and will more than likely hold more weight than you would want to put on a sub 100 dollar stereo shelf. It holds my AV receiver and 2 amplifiers with ample space above each for proper ventilation. The rack is sturdy enough that I experience no feedback and am able to safely keep my turn-table on top. My only request for the manufacturer would be the option to have 2 'large' shelves, rather than just the one. I plan to add an additional power amp soon, and don't know where it's going to live quite yet. For under 100, you can't go wrong. If you're considering it, go for it. You will be happy. Arrived quickly, also.

Great product. Easy to put together. My 7 and 5 year old put it together in about 10 min. Great for a carpeted dedicated home theater with the included spikes. Very heavy duty.

The Monolith audio rack is a great piece of equipment at a reasonable price. It is very sturdy and easy to assemble in less than 30 minutes. The fit and finish is above average. There is one set of uprights that are slightly longer than the others - the instructions show them being used between the top and first shelves, but they can be used between any two shelves if you want. The only tool I found useful was a rubber mallet. To assemble the feet, you have insert a threaded cap for the carpet spikes into the bottom of each foot. It is a tight fit. I found using a mallet to tap the cap into the leg was a lot easier than trying to push it in with my hands.

Monoprice products have been reliable for me so I opted for this model as it seemed to be a cost effective solution for my intended purpose. Assembly is self explanatory and simple, but tedious. Make a cup of coffee and prepare to sit for an hour twisting the left assemblies into place. Pro Tip No. 253: Level the stand prior to placing your stereo equipment on it (it's going to require more than one attempt anyhow... ) Resorted to Google and found an audiophile site where a user recommended leveling the front two legs first then a third leg on the rear (either left or right) then it becomes short work to bring the fourth leg into balance. This approach worked for me, YMMV. The construction is solid and I'm confident in it. That said - it is fabricated material and does not have either the aesthetic feel or appearance of wood. I've not yet marked it up, but it is not scratch resistant. I opted for this item when it occurred to me the legacy stereo equipment I was pressing into service was not vintage, merely old (1983 Technics) and did I really want to spend nearly twice twice as much on my next choice? With an eye towards the future I do have a slight regret at not making another choice. I'm using the included pegs on a carpeted floor which is long overdue for replacement. I'm probably opt for some coasters to place underneath when the inevitable home improvement occurs and the carpet is upgraded. I did try a set of casters on the stand as an interim step. While they fit accordingly (AAGUT 1.5" Swivel Stem Casters Wheels with Brake Lock Screwed Bolt 3/8"-16x1", Heavy Duty PU Rubber Wheels, 4 Packs with Nut) they did not seem to be a good idea when using a turntable, i.e. they introduced too much wobble, so I promptly abandoned the idea and returned them In summary, it's a quality product for the cost and it serves my intended purpose well. I'm again enjoying my legacy vinyl collection - and adding to it as any collector would. I do see myself upgrading the 'vintage' stereo to something modern and more capable at which point I may reassess this purchase, but for today I'm pleased.

I'm using this to hold all of my console development hardware and keep my desk from becoming a disaster. It has done the job wonderfully. Very easy to assemble, solid (I'm not using the spikes jfyi), and good looking. Well worth the money, I will probably buy another to use with actual audio equipment in another room.

Great quality, rock solid and looks awesome and no missing parts.

Great product very sturdy. This replaced an audio rack that had glass shelves. I feel much more confident with this one. It was very easy to assemble. 👍🏾

I own two of these and they're super sturdy holding my heavy Outlaw and Emotiva amplifiers

Excellent build quality.

良い点：丈夫な作り・簡単な組み立て・問題ない精度 悪い点：裏面の塗装品質が悪い。 新品だが４枚の棚板の内２枚の裏面に塗装ムラが有りマジック？様の塗料で補修した跡がある。 組み立て後は裏面なので目立ちはせず。 個人的には許容範囲。

Does everything you’d possibly want from a hifi rack all at a very reasonable price

Given this is the ONLY One I could find in this price range including shipping, it's functional and seems sturdy. My Anthem amp is installed along with uhd player and fire TV CUBE.
