    Default Two racks, one pair of spkr stands...and a slab of marble

    No, its not the name of the latest film by Richard Curtis, starring Hugh Grant..........

    It’s my sale thread!!

    RACK 1.... Brand name is Apollo. 3 tier. Glass shelves, which all say Apollo on them.
    It dismantles. Few scuffs to paintwork
    Price is £10

    Rack 2....No brand name. 6 shelves including top one. Shelves are kind of vinyly veneer over wood.
    It dismantles in to 3 sections.
    Price is £10

    Slab of marble.... this came to me with a turntable and I used it for that.
    Grey, with flecks. It’s heavy. !!
    Dimensions 48cm x 40 x 2
    That is it sitting on the rack in the pictures. Can take close ups if needed.
    Price is £10

    Speaker stands.....dont know the maker. ( but open to advice ! )
    Look designed to sit flush to wall
    Dimensions ......top plate... 30 cm x 17.5. Top plate is 50 cm high
    Price is £30

    postage is out of the question for anything.
    I live in West Lancs/Merseyside and collection from here is welcome.

    I go to Scotland regularly, so could possibly bring anything up there

    Brian,

    The #2 rack looks like 3 x 2 tier Sound Factory units. They are a precursor to the Soundstyle racks & retailed from a shop of that name in Loughborough & manufactured by Fabriweld, who also made all of the Sound Organisation stuff IIRC. They were well liked in the early 90s & cost a couple of hundred for the bits you have. Excellent with CB Naim kit, I still have a couple in the shed. A bit of blutak to secure the shelves worked wonders.

    A bargain for what you’re asking.

    They certainly look like Sara stands, but the ones I recall were slightly different. That is to say that the top plate was slightly smaller and the top spikes were also the nuts that held the top plate to the uprights.

    The Sound Factory stands we’re excellent and I still have a whole bunch in my own system.

    Steve, I’m so sorry, but just 5 minutes ago I agreed to sell that to someone else via another forum. He is also going to collect.

    I came back here to update my thread.

    If that should fall through, I will get in touch.

    SO..... tripod rack is gone, subject to usual stuff

    No worries Brian. I'll certainly be interested if the other bloke doesn't turn up

    I have now sold the following.

    1)The tripod rack . Number 2 on my original list

    2)The speaker stands ( possibly for Saras )
    The same buyer also bought the stands for Snell/Audio Note that I had
    for sale in a different thread.

    3)Slab of granite.


    So, that just leaves the APOLLO rack, with lovely glass shelves.
    Just £10 !!!!
    Form an orderly queue. No pushing at the back.
    That’s just a little more than the cost of a couple of pints of Guinness. You know it makes sense.

    AH Brian, that Apollo rack must be feeling really sad and unwanted, so I would like to give it a good home IF YOU STILL HAVE IT I reckon I can use it, with one or two modifications It might be Sunday before I can collect though.
