Rise Above Vibrations

Say hello to this heavy-duty, wall-mounted audio gear rack. Each corner of the top shelf is independently adjustable, so you can get it dead level—a must for those of us with turntables. And because vibration is the enemy of good sound, the top shelf has a double-layer with silicone sandwiched in between. The top layer is insulated from the rest of the rack to keep vibrations at bay. The middle shelf is intended for vinyl. Built by hand by an audiophile for audiophiles, this rack is perfect for turntables and tube amps alike.

Why wall-mounted?

Floors are bouncy. Every footstep sends shivers through your gear. Walls, on the other hand—especially solid exterior ones—are way more stable. By mounting your gear on the wall, you’re giving vibration a run for its money. Add the double-layer silicone-damped shelves into the mix, and you’ve got a setup that’s as solid as a rock. There’s also space in the back for cable management, helping you keep everything nice and organized.

Meet your maker

Matt Jabloner aka MattyBlue was once an environmental engineer who now channels his expertise into making audio equipment. Hailing from Washington state, he’s created numerous enthusiast audiophile products like the Bottlehead Solitary Confinement Isolation Platform, Bottleheadphone stand kit, Bottlehead Subette Passive Subwoofer kit, and the Bottlehead DIY flat pack speakers. He prioritizes warmth in design, using solid woods like Alder and Sapele and ensuring his designs complement rather than dominate a room. From turntable platforms to subwoofers, Matt's creations blend modern tech with timeless materials. He’s ecstatic to collaborate with Apos on his latest design, the Wall-mounted Audio Rack.

An Apos 𝒙 Product

Every great product begins with a great idea. Matt had a vision for a wall-mounted audio rack that would tackle vibrations and enhance turntable performance. We were curious, so we posted an interest check on our blog to see if this concept resonated with our fellow audiophiles. The response was fantastic. Encouraged by the positive feedback, we created a poll for community members to leave detailed suggestions. This collaboration was pivotal and helped shape the final product.

With feedback in hand, Matt went back to refine his design. This iterative process, guided by community input and Matt’s expertise, led to the final design of the Wall-mounted Audio Rack. We’re excited to offer it as part of the Apos 𝒙 lineup, showcasing what can be achieved when designers and the audiophile community join forces. Read our interview with Matt.
