Aries Cerat Owners what audio racks do you use with your equipment?

[Tabl10s]

Hello everyone,
I recently purchased 3 Aries Cerat components : Concerto 65 MKI mono blocks, Impera II Sig pre-amplifier and a Kassandra II Ref Dac.
I've invested so much in my Aries Cerat components that I want to maximize their musical performance. There are many companies that make excellent audio racks, but I'm having a difficult time trying to decide.
There's so much hype and marketing and very few people I have spoken with have actually compared different manufactures audio racks side by side. I emailed, Stavros and he replied back saying don't overspend
on racks and purchase a good rack that can reliably support the weight of the components with some good footers or isolation platforms. I'm looking for (3) 3 tier low profile racks for my Aries Cerat components
and other equipment and (2) amp stands.
The rest of my system consists of the following : Stillpoint ESS audio rack ( which is too small to hold the Aries Cerat components ) Stillpoint Ultra 5's, Esoteric K-01,
Pink Faun 2.16 Ultra, my old Linn Sondek LP-12 Ittok and lingo power supply ( I don't collect LP's anymore and I have about 7-800 albums ) Shunyata Everest with several Sigma power cords and Inakustik Power
Station and full loom of Inakustik cables, Vac 160SE integrated amplifier. I'm currently looking for speakers, but I have in storage a pair of Magnepan 3.6R . The room in which the equipment will be located in the dimensions are: 18' wide , 13' deep and 8' high. There's a fireplace on one of the short walls an open door to the kitchen on the opposite short wall of the fireplace and across from the audio equipment is a double french door that leads into 18' wide by 20' deep and 8' high four seasons room. I listen to music in the the four season room off to one side. The experience is more like listening to music in a small club off to one side of the stage vs a concert hall.
Please, forgive me if I'm rambling on about my equipment and my room dimensions , but wanted give you folks enough information about my system . In the future I will start separate threads on room treatment , a CD transport for the Kassandra II Ref Dac and choosing new speakers for my system based on my room configuration and size. But, first I need to purchase some quality audio rack for my Aries Cerat components because of their size and weight. I'm asking Aries Cerat owners for your help and advice in choosing audio racks , footers and isolation platforms for my equipment? I appreciate any help or advise you can give me.
Sincerely, John

Robert Do uses these(I didn't ask what they were as I was enthralled with the sound).

Thanks Tabl10s,

I believe they are custom audio racks from Wilson Benesch. I spoke to the Aries Cerat importer about them, they are very good.

I only have one piece from Aires Cerat - the Kassandra MKII DAC. But I expect that my rack (the Silent Running Craz MK3) can accommodate multiple AC pieces. I have been very happy with it.

Hi Nathau,

The Aries Cerat Kassandra MkII Dac is just incredible. Very musical and organic sounding, instruments and voices just sound real.
I heard the Silent Running audio racks are very good. You have some world class audio components, I can just imagine how good your
system sounds. Thanks for contributing to the thread.

@JMaudiophile Just to add to the rack I use, I’m using the Taiko Daiza platforms under my Essentia amps to get them up off the suspended floor I have and to good effect. Relatively inexpensive although I must admit I haven’t’ tried anything else.

Hi Everyone,
I just want to be up front and say we are the North American importer and distributor for Aries Cerat.

We have had great success with Wellfloat racks from Japan. The AC gear does require a custom built rack due to the sheer size and weight of the components. The wellfloat racks and anti-vibration boards/footers can be custom built for AC gear. This is the very best anti-vibration rack we have experienced.

We also import and distribute Wellfloat in North America for this reason.

Cheers, Robert Neill

If you find yourself in Detroit, feel free to stop by.

I like to recommend Neohighend racks, they are big, bold, and awesome looking and most imprtently great sounding, just world class racks.

The specifications reference 60 kg shelf weight limitations, Aries Cerat gear usually weighs in more at the Reference level.

The floor platforms can handle much more where we've got 120 kg (Pilium) on one of them here.
