• Total distance available in-between the shelves: 510mm
• Total Rack height: 740mm
• Weight limitations top shelf: 50 kg
• Weight limitation middle shelves: 45kg

Hybrid stacked and arranged as a conventional rack

Hybrid Wood here in black oak and Hybrid Isolation shelf-kit HD in concrete. Top shelf in black oak with Hybrid wood isolation system.

Isolation is very important as it is no doubt it will enhance the sound quality extensively.

Isolation Shelves will effectively damp the equipment both from internal as well as external vibrations using two shelves with a mechanical suspension isolation system in-between.
The advantage of the Hybrid Isolation Shelf is that each module will be individually isolated and the rack will keep its stability.

The bottom shelf is available in black as well as white. The top shelf is available in black, white, walnut, cherry, oak, black oak and concrete. Extrusions in black and silver.

The Concrete material is selected due to its excellent audio characteristics and high density that will increase the rack's stability. Unlike the body of a musical instrument, good audio racks should not vibrate, as modern drivers today render the full sound spectrum linearly. But if the rack itself does vibrate due to its construction or materials, then those vibrations affect performance by amplifying or diminishing certain sympathetic frequencies within the sound spectrum. It is a complicated physical process with a simple and clearly audible consequence.

• Concrete is very heavy that will give the rack more stability
• Its weight and high density prevent it from vibrating
• Concrete is irregularly structured that will prevent vibrations to be spread

Concrete is also a beautiful natural material that works in most house styles, modern as well as classic. There are no visible screw heads and the consoles are isolated with cork to avoid any potential tone or “singing". Each shelf is handmade and will thus slightly differ from one another.

The Hybrid Isolation shelf has an inbuilt unsurpassed isolation system that isolate each level from each other as well as from the floor.
Hybrid Isolation shelf isolate the equipment from vibration using two shelves with a mechanical suspension system in-between.
The advantage of the Hybrid Isolation Shelf is that each module will be individually isolated and the rack will keep its stability.

The Hybrid Isolation Shelf comes with a spring system that contains as many as 28 springs in total and can bear a maximum weight of 46kg. Customers can easily adjust the amount of springs in order to optimize the isolation and adapt to the equipment weight. Below is a measurement analysis of the shelf that shows the damping efficiency.

The Isolation shelves can be used in both Hybrid standard, Hybrid Full Length as well as Hybrid Wood system.

The bottom shelf is available in the following configurations:

• Bottom shelf: black and white
• The top shelf: black, white, walnut, cherry, oak and black oak

The Hybrid Isolation shelf-kit HD has an inbuilt unsurpassed isolation system that isolates each level from each other as well as from the floor.
Hybrid Isolation shelf-kit HD isolates the equipment from vibration using two shelves with a mechanical suspension system in-between.
The advantage is that each module will be individually isolated and the rack will keep its stability.

The HD variant is made to withstand even higher loads than the isolation shelf-kit. The integrated isolation system in the Isolation shelf-kit HD is even more efficient as it is based on tension spring compared to compression spring used in the Isolation shelf-kit.

The Hybrid Isolation Shelf-kit HD comes with a spring system that contains as many as 48 springs in total and can bear a maximum load of 90kg (24 springs) or 180kg (48 springs). It is easy to adjust the amount of springs in order to optimize the isolation efficiency.

The Isolation shelf-kit HD can be used in both Hybrid standard, Hybrid Full Length as well as Hybrid Wood.

Size of the shelf is 435mm x 495mm x 60-70mm.

The Isolation shelves can be used in both Hybrid standard, Hybrid Full Length as well as Hybrid Wood.

The bottom shelf is available in the following configurations:

• Bottom shelf: black and white
• The top shelf: black, white, walnut, cherry, oak, black oak and concrete
• Extrusions: black and silver

Hybrid Wood suspension is integrated in the pillars.

Up to 12 Springs per pillar can be used.

One suspended pillars comes with 6 springs, 3 are mounted.

Extra springs can be supplied.

When all 12 springs are mounted can 4 pillars uphold 180kg.

Extrusions are available in Silver and Black.

Hybrid Wood corner pillars are available in four sizes

• 200mm
• 275mm
• 350mm
• 670mm

Hybrid Wood suspended corner pillars have the same sizes.  

To the new Hybrid Wood corner pillars is also new turntable developed. These new turntables are made of a sandwich board that have been veneered in black oak, oak, walnut and cherry. The sandwich board consists of 4 layers:

• Layer 1: thin sheet of cork on the top to avoid any potential ringing in the table
• Layer 2: MDF
• Layer 3: Porous damp layer that will absorb and remove resonance in the table
• Layer 4: MDF

  The top table Shelf has a thickness of 24mm width of 527mm and  a length of 705mm.   The board has been tested by letting a 9,8g steel ball be dropped 50 cm above the sandwich board and compared with a standard MDF board. The result is described in below table:

Test object	Peak value (dB)	Peak average over 3 seconds (dB)
Sandwich board	109,7 dB	73,9 dB
Standard MDF board	119,9 dB	87,1 dB

From the result one can read that the sandwich board basically damp with 10-13dB compared to a standard MDF board. The large top tables have a limitation of load as it is placed on top of the corner pillars of the Rack of Silence. The maximum load is 50kg. If further load is required it is recommended to place the uppermost rack shelf just beneath it and use the apparatus support to assist the support of the table. In this way the maximum load can be increased to 160kg.

To match the veneered shelves for Hybrid and Hybrid Wood is now also available Veneered sideboards for Hybrid wood and Hybrid. The Sideboard purpose is to keep the shelves with the equipment free from accessories such as remote controls, RIA amps or CD covers.

Top lid for Hybrid Wood are available in black oak, oak, cherry and walnut. If no top shelf/turntable shelf is used it is recommended to use top lids.

Available in black oak, oak, walnut and cherry. Four sizes: 200, 275, 350 and 670mm

Measurements of the Hybrid rack series

The block design does not only offfer endless flexibility but also ensures effective isolation between every shelf for enhanced performance. Externally as well as internally born resonances and vibrations are effectively reduced by the felt-padded isolation disc made from brass which create the necessary joint which stops the expansion of unwanted movements (resonances/vibrations)

Hybrid Extrusion available in black and silver anodized aluminium.
