Bassocontinuo cabinetry, handmade in Italy and designed for sound quality.

Buying a rack without careful consideration, or relying on unproven manufacturers, or aiming to spend “as little as possible”, can be a risky move to say the least, threatening to squander the time and money invested in assembling our HiFi chain. A poorly designed support, with poor materials and no scientific foundation, not only will fail to achieve its purpose of insulating electronic components, but worse it can even amplify the vibrations coming from the floor and those generated by turntable motors and CD players, further damaging the sound.

So how much should we invest to avoid this problem? It’s hard to put a specific number on it, but you should think of the rack as a vital component, no different to the amplifier or the loudspeakers or the cables, and as such you should spend an appropriate amount, proportional to the value of the rest of your system, and balancing your budget across the various components and accessories. Of course, the more refined and sensitive is your signal source, the greater the level of vibration isolation you will want to achieve, and therefore the greater your investment in the rack.

The Bassocontinuo racks are designed to be as important to the audio reproduction chain in your home as the quality of the core components. the technical efforts they make to ensure this are actually staggering and I believe the industry standard.
