        "Put your equipment where you would put yourself... someplace safe."

        Many external elements constantly bombard your delicate pre-amp and signal processing pathways from other surrounding electrical components. Our meticulously designed products pay proper attention to the spacing and materials that are used, to reduce outside variables. Audiophiles around the world outwardly praise the advantages
        shielding and dampening can do to increase the quality of the audio and video reproduction from your existing equipment. We think that a 'no compromise' solution is exactly what your delicate equipment deserves... and, fondly dreams of. 

        3-Stage Anti-vibration, Induction Blocking & EMF / Magnetic Gauss Shielding - Sonic distortion arises from some major common issues: local vibration sources and thermal heat build up, interference (induction), ESD (electrostatic discharge), RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) and Magnetic fields are just the start. Our unique floating of various material densities and patented materials gives you stunningly improved sonic and video imaging.

        The world's only true reference...and, yes... you deserve it.


        Audiav Composite Signature, Carbon Fiber Signature & Granite Signature Shelf Platforms - Layering is an ideal way to dissipate vibration. Audiav hand-layers various material densities including multiple low mass twin composites, dual high mass layers and a high mass inert center with internal layers of optional patented shielding and unique asphalt copolymers. Signature shelving is nearly 2" thick of specifically selected materials to shield undesired interference and create a strong base foundation without resonance. Deadening outside forces on your delicate equipment is vital to your listening and viewing environment. Distortion arises from some major and some common issues: Packet data loss and re-requests, interference (induction) fields, ESD (electrostatic discharge), RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) induction, AC & DC EMF, magnetic gauss, local vibration sources and thermal heat build-up. 

        Sonic imaging is improved with a greatly expanded sound stage- video is cleaner and more crisp with reduced distortions. Audiav's Signature Composite and Granite Signature shelving gives your high-end sonic and visual reproduction equipment the physical 'living' space that it needs to work and live properly in a true reference environment.


        Audiav Standard Shelving - The Dual HPL coated Audiav standard shelving was designed with the minimalist audio video enthusiast in mind. Strong, inert and dense, our specially designed high mass, low distortion 1" composite platforms are ideal for equipment less than 70-80lbs or 150+lbs with optional crossbars. Our dense composite material has a lower resonance than glass, steel, acrylic or solid woods. Specialized low durometer decouplers dampen the vibrations sent to the shelf decoupling from your equipment.

        Gemstone Encrusted Emblem - A logo is more than just simple ego and pageantry. Room dynamics and visual appeal may are what most of your friends take upon leaving from your home or office. Audiav's gemstone encrusted badge includes an 18/8 stainless steel mounted emblem.

        Custom Designed Units - Contact your local dealer or
        contact us directly to coordinate the design. We are always available to assist you in designing the perfect Audiav stand for your unique needs.
