stands that deliver
An equipment rack should be the foundation of your system; each has its own character and performance.

1 Quadraspire Q4
★★★★★ £380
It’s as light as a feather, but don’t let appearances deceive:
Quadraspire’s nifty Q4 lets your kit pack a punch. Made from
metal and wood, the Q4 is swift to assemble and easy to move.
The cheapest rack here gives our kit a cohesive sound with a
well-balanced treble, taut and expressive bass and a supple
and emotive midrange. Dynamically, this little rack doesn’t
lack, and detailing is more than capable. At this price the Q4
should be on your audition list.

2 Quadraspire Sunoko Vent T
★★★★★ £800
This is a wildcard, at £300 more than the nearest rival. Larger
than the Q4, it’s
clearly from the same family, and our test
rig really sings on this rack, serving up a refined, well-lit treble,
smooth and rich midrange and a tight bass with superb grip and
bags of detailing. Dynamically, you get
a first-rate performance, and production subtleties are a
revelation.

Q4EVO
Quadraspire launched its fi rst hifi rack, the Q4,
in 1995 and to celebrate its 15th Anniversary
we are pleased to announce a total upgrade.
The new Q4EVO shelf is intricately machined
Intricate Machining
on the underside to further reduce mass
and resonance without losing any of its strength.
The other key Q4 features remain:-
■ Flexible modular solution to fi t most systems
■ Beautiful real wood veneered shelves
■ Solid non magnetic aluminium columns
As soon as it was launched the Q4EVO received
a 5 star review in What hifi .
“The cheapest rack here gives our kit a cohesive sound
with a well-balanced treble, taut and expressive bass
and a supple and emotive midrange.”

The Sunoko-Vent has also been further
improved and provides a step in performance
over the Q4EVO for heavier and larger
sized components:
■ The engineered slotted shelves reduce mass and help
air circulation to avoid overheating of the components
■ Solid brass collars dissipate vibration away from the
electronics through
■ Solid concave aluminium columns to deliver a clearer,
cleaner musical performance
Amazingly Quadraspire netted a double coup when the SVT
also received 5 star review on release.
“Dynamically, you get a fi rst rate performance,
and production subleties are a revelation.”
Quadraspire was set up by Dutch Furniture designer Eduard Spruit in 1995 with the aim of designing and making
quality hifi furniture that combines style and function with acoustic performance. At Quadraspire we believe that
the rack is central to the optimum performance of a whole system. The reason for this is that each electronic
component and cable is susceptible to electrical and mechanical noise that will degrade overall system
performance. It is critical to reduce this to a minimum to deliver a clearer cleaner musical performance. We are
able to achieve this through a combination of non magnetic aluminium columns and specially engineered wooden
shelves. To ensure consistant production to the highest standards expected from our customers around the world
we make our own products at our factory in Bath, England.
