You might also want to ask Richard Krol if he could do something to suit your purposes.

Ah, I bought Richard's 502 :-)
I might drop him a line, though I suspect postage might be prohibitive.

Thanks,
Duncan

Thanks to all who have replied so far. Plenty of good options for me to explore. Further pointers gratefully received.

I should perhaps have said that I am looking for something "double width" (ie with over 900mm usable width) to keep the height down. As well as 568, 557, centre speaker and DVD/CD player its going to have to take the Wii and the PS3 :-)

I might also give Atacama a ring and see whether they have been conservative with their specs.

Rgds,
Duncan

I have a double width Appollo Mezzo rack, it will take about 100kg per shelf, though I did get a glass shelf to bend when loaded with a 558 and 559!!!, so maybe 80kg would be a better bet! - it was cetainly fine with a pair of 557s on a shelf.

The Quadraspive AV racks will also take 100kg per shelf.

Be warned though if you are ever think you might upgrade to a 558/559, then watch the depth of the shelves as these units are very deep.

There's also HiFi Racks of Oakham. http://www.hifiracks.co.uk

Come highly recommended ("HiFi Choice" IIRC) and they're modular so you can expand as required.

Bit pricy but they do look a bit good.
