Quadraspire SV3T HiFi Racks

What you place your HiFi on will affect its performance. Placing your HiFi on a Quadraspire performance HiFi rack will help reduce resonance, lower the noise floor, and open the soundstage to make your HiFi sound even better.

The SV3T is the heaviest-duty rack in the SV line — each shelf rated for up to 240kg (529 lb), three times the SVT's per-shelf weight capacity. It is the platform built for statement-tier systems where individual components weigh as much as a small piece of furniture: large monoblocks, statement turntables, full-chassis tube amplifiers. The structural architecture is consistent with the rest of the line — the same 32mm (1.26") curved solid-aluminum columns and solid bamboo-ply shelves — engineered for the highest loads in the family. Available in 2-5 shelf configurations.

Main Features

Solid Bamboo Ply. Some shelf materials, like glass, resonate and can distort the sound of your system. As a result of extensive testing, Quadraspire uses solid bamboo ply that suppresses vibrations and is also carbon neutral. Available bamboo finishes: Natural, Dark, Cherry, and Black.

Solid Aluminum Columns, 32mm (1.26"). Steel tube can resonate and distort sound. Aluminum has much less resonance, so Quadraspire uses it for all columns and feet — solid, not tubular, to dissipate energy quickly. The SV3T's 32mm (1.26") SV columns are available in Black or Matt Silver, in heights of 100mm (3.94"), 140mm (5.51"), 180mm (7.09"), 216mm (8.50"), 256mm (10.08"), and 326mm (12.83").

240kg (529 lb) per Shelf. Each SV3T shelf is rated for up to 240kg (529 lb) of equipment — three times the SVT's per-shelf rating, and the highest weight capacity in the SV family. The SV3T is the rack to specify when one or more components in the system simply cannot be placed on a conventional support without strain.

Designed to Avoid Parallel Lines. Parallel lines on rectangular shelves encourage resonance which can distort sound. Where possible, Quadraspire avoids parallel lines in the same way as most musical instrument designs — curved columns, chamfered shelf edges, intricate machining at every contact point.

Footer Options. The SV3T can be specified with spikes, flat feet, or castors, with an optional bronze upgrade for the feet — bronze and brass dissipate vibration in the same way they ring well in musical instruments.

Each rack is built to order. The shelf count is selected at purchase below; the wood finish, column color, footer style, and column height are configured through Quadraspire's Build-and-Price tool, or by speaking with us directly. For lighter component weights, see the SVT (80kg / 176 lb) and SV2T (160kg / 353 lb) at lower price tiers in the same architecture. Designed and built in England by Quadraspire, since 1995.
