The ultimate in performance and aesthetic, our top-of-the-line OLYMPUS-Ultra is a Masterwork of Thermodynamics designed exclusively for high-end audio systems to provide music lovers with the optimum listening experience. The OLYMPUS-Ultra is constructed following our patented and award-winning dual-zone, 12-stage vibration damping model. Our unique Dual-Zone, 12-stage system is unparalleled in producing the lowest and most neutral noise floor in the industry. OLYMPUS-Ultra helps components create a nearly shocking sense of realism across the audible spectrum.

The OLYMPUS-Ultra filters and rack architecture function as one to mitigate vibration in the floor, the rack, the shelf, and the component at the same time. Originally developed ground-up for turntables (the most vibration-sensitive component of the audio system) the precision of the engineering is so exact that it performs exceptionally with every component in the audio system.

The OLYMPUS-Ultra aesthetic is extraordinary in that every edge of the framework is hand-polished to a mirror finish. A technician is required to hold each part to a high-speed buffer at least 3 separate times as the sandpaper grit is decreased until a mirror finish is achieved. The hand-polished metal edges are masked off before primer, paint and clear coat are applied and wet sanded to a smooth finish. The processes involved are intricate, time-consuming, labor-intensive hand-work that culminates in a breathtakingly beautiful result.

The ultimate in performance and aesthetic, the OLYMPUS-Ultra allows the owner to create a statement in the listening room. Custom-made to order, sizing is very flexible for single components (amplifiers), single vertical rack configurations, and side-by-side configurations for multi-component systems. Leveling is fully adjustable.

We use an oven-baked color stabilization painting process for the horizontal framework, top caps, feet, legs, and filters. As far as custom colors, you can choose any automotive paint available in the United States. Let us know your color preferences and we can make recommendations.
