Desktop "rack"....

[Shanerr]

Anyone have a suggestion for a desktop rack for my headphone station? Looking for ideas, what others may be using. Biggest piece is the Monolith 887, needs to be 3 tiered, or 2 shelves with a bottom opening, if that makes sense. Monolith, Schiit Lokius, Topping D50S.. Doesn't need to be expensive and would prefer to get from Amazon due to a credit.. Thanks all!!!

I also have interest in a desktop rack for Schiit Bifrost/Magnius and Valhalla 2. I see many in photos on DROP website, etc. The chrome and glass look is awesome to me, but no idea where to find or how to build. Any thoughts more than welcome.

I'm interested in this as well

Same here, I'd love one like this to clean up my desk.

I bet they want much more than it's worth, with the obligatory audiophile pricing. I'd like to get something smaller too, as my AHB2 & LA4 look lost on my old Billy Bags rack. It was fine for my old equipment but, a little much for these.

Could do something wall mounted like this, which is designed for a full-width piece of AV gear (think DVD player)...

... it's wide enough to fit head-fi stuff side-by-side on 2 shelves (inside and top).

If you're willing to do wall mount monoprice has some options like this: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=10480

Don't know why you couldn't build one to suit...

I'm not the OP but I can think of 10 reasons why they may want to purchase something rather than building from scratch.

Yeah, building something yourself is typically more expensive than just buying something.

This is not a photo, but a rendering. Could be that it never was produced. But yes, looks nifty indeed.

Depends on how you make it. I really see no flaw in building it yourself as the commercial product will have extra costs factored into it like overhead, R&D, building hours/labor, etc. This is a desktop rack for smaller components so the materials are also reduced in size. It really should not be expensive.

Or you can assemble two stands like these from amazon with double tape or some glue

• Color: Transparent
• Material: Glass
• Size: 15.2" x 9.4" x 3.0"

It's not the material that is expensive, it's the labor. Take the Topping rack for example. It costs like less than 40€. So how many hours of work would you be willing do for 40€?

(Another reason not to DIY is of course tools and equipment you need. It would take a lot of DIY projects for that stuff to pay for itself)

There was this rack on Aliexpress, but it cost well over 300 euros.

What should such a desktop rack for 2 - 3 devices cost?
