hi-fi+ Awards Winner 2023 : Solid Tech Balance

Solid Tech Balance

The Balance rack is part of Solid Tech's component isolation range, and it features corner posts from their Radius series, offering flexibility in shelf height. These posts can be filled with sand to enhance isolation further. The rack comes in two levels - Basic and Iso - with the latter including an additional isolation platform. The shelves are 22mm thick and have a high load capacity, and Iso adds a level of additional decoupling from vibrations.

Its platforms can be single-width or wide enough for two components. Solid Tech suggests using a single-width platform for up to five levels. The design allows for extended, interleaved racks.

Constructing the rack requires carefull attention to details, such as centring the built-in spirit level. The Iso platforms have springs that must be selected using a look-upstable based on weight. The springs can hold weights ranging from 2kg to 100kg and can be used to balance uneven products.

"The clue is in the name here; the Solid Tech Balance table is all about... equilibrium. It's about adding or subtracting as little as possible from the sound." said Alan Sircom in our test. It allows systems to perform dynamically and with expressive details, offering a less peaky frequency response. In other words, the Balance rack brings order to systems and enhances the performance of clean and honest components.

Alan Sircom also said Solid Tech, "offers a 'balance' of performance and price that will bring out the best in good systems but doesn't make you crave the bigger products. I can see this bringing a sense of Balance to many good systems."
