After one year of researches I've decided:
I wanted to have an equipment rack more specific for my Naim System.
I wanted it outside the listening room to avoid any resonance.
Unfourtunately the NAIM FRAIM could not fit in the selected space and no other rack in the market had the same appeal to me.
The only solution was to project and build my own rack.
I've taken inspiration from the Living Voice and Finite Elemente ones:"compact" double racks to house everything.
1.
Three hard cherry wood indipendet shelves.

1.
Three hard cherry wood indipendet shelves.
2.
Each shelf has been thought as a grid structure with 2 plywood panels lean on.
Under each panel, 4 steel spikes.
3.
Each shelf is hang on three solid cherry wood uprights.
Each shelf is separately decoupled from the uprights thanks to a screws/rubber rings system, providing a second level of isolation.
5.
Everthything had beeswax finishing.
The set up was easy...
and this is the result.....with the rubber sheet of a new turntable.....
The solid cherry wood structural grid has holes fitted with 1,2 cm teflon cilinder and 2 steel circles to house the spikes providing a first level of isolation.

4.
The shelves/uprights rack sits with spikes on teflon/steel circles fitted in a sinlge hard wood base, providing a third level of isolation.
At the end, three Finite Elemente CERABASE supports under the base provide a fourth level of isolation.
