Hi-Fi Racks Podium XL (V) Single Tier Equipment Stand

Apart from the fifth solid hardwood leg that gives it its name, the Podium XL (V) rack shares most of its other features with the Podium XL rack, including its sturdy 40mm solid oak plinths. However, it's available in larger sizes than the XL, making it the biggest standard-sized rack that we produce.

Earning a 5-star review in What Hi Fi? November 2012 edition, the Podium XL was praised on its ability to ‘convey oodles of weight, and plenty and refinement too’. The Podium XL is a great choice for those wanting to highlight their hi-fi components, and with the optional TV Bracket you can mount your TV too so that all your technology sits together in your room.

As with our other Podium racks, it can be easily adapted and upgrade as your system grows and changes. Made from 40mm solid hardwoods and 46mm2 hardwood legs, this rack also provides the same stiffness and stability that Hi Fi Racks prides itself on.

Construction

40mm hardwood staves are used for each tier providing stiffness and stability, adding to the Hi Fi Racks density as well as absorbing vibration. Each board is bonded concave and convex adding to the board’s rigidity. The Hi Fi stand comes with 46mm² solid hardwood legs which are removable and can be made to any length, this allows the hi-fi rack to fit around your system, giving adequate space for heat and means you can keep adapting and upgrading your rack with longer legs if you change equipment changes.

Modular

As with all our stands, you can add or remove levels and change leg heights to modify and upgrade your unit as your system grows and changes.

Customisable

The Podium XL (V) forms part of our bespoke range. One of the key advantages of this rack is that it can be made to any depth, width or height so you can have the rack made to the exact millimetre of your specifications, enabling it to fit your equipment and environment perfectly. We don’t charge a premium for this, just the cubic millimetre cost, so you get a rack that is perfect for you.

Weight Capacity

Each tier can hold 150kg

Leg Length

When selecting the appropriate leg height for your rack, this is the clearance between the two plinths including the spike, but please note that this does not include the thickness of the plinths (40mm). Any leg length is available at no extra cost, enabling you to specify the exact length to meet your requirements. Don’t forget to leave adequate spacing above items that run hot for effective heat dispersal - the required spacing can usually be found within your product manual.

LP Pack

This offers a tidy storage solution for your vinyl records. When selecting this addition, one of the tiers will be allocated to create this offering, incorporating two extra legs on each side with a rear crossbar for support. This can be made to fit any width and depth. Please note that if you select this option one of the tiers will be allocated to the LP pack. You may wish to add an additional tier for this option if you require the other tiers to fit your equipment.

Cable management

This offers a neat solution for all of your cables presented at the rear of the rack, manufactured from 22mm thickness wood which will attach to the back of the rack to minimise the cluttered look of messy cables.

Castors

Castors are a 65mm high wheel. Selecting the castor option will mean that you will lose the legs on the base level of your rack, with castors manufactured directly into the base plinth. Interchangeable legs with castors are available upon request.
