Don't know which forum this post would even fit into, but ...

Just wondering if anyone here has used or seen this Bell'O audio stand?

A little pricey, but looks to be well made. Each shelf can handle 50 lbs. My power amp weighs every bit of that. It does have a Cable Management System in the back so your speaker wires are not dangling all over the place in the back ... 61" tall

    Dan (Mantis) recently sold his, he might be around to give you his impression of it. Looks awesome either way, Bell'O makes great furniture, albeit a bit overprice if you buy them from B&M chain
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    I have a couple of stands from Bell'o although not the same model as above. They are quality products. I got mine from racksandstands.com last year. The price was very good from there and the service was amazing. They had a promotion going on at the time to upgrade shipping to FedEx's fast ground service. Amazingly, they shipped both stands by next day air. One weighed 140 lbs and the other 120 lbs and the shipping was free.

    To me Bell'o stands are primarily great for appearance and style. While they do nothing to keep vibrations from reaching equipment, they do look excellent.

    Turbota,

    I also have a Bell'O stand. It is one of those low ones designed to put your rear projection TV on . It is plenty sturdy my Mitsubishi is 171 lbs. , my receiver is 45lbs., it also has two dvd players, one cable box, and a Monster Cable line conditioner,not to mention the center channel speaker. Looks good the glass shelves are about 3/8 in. thick. It's very stable. Steel, glass, and wood. I love it. I'm sure you will too.

    Forget "audio racks," get a bookshelf and drill holes in the back for cables then mount computer exhaust fans in the receiver/amp shelves to keep it cool.
    Twist one. For DnB.

    Here's a shot from my old house when I owned the Bello rack.

    I had no use for it in the new house as I'm building a theater in the basement and the livingroom I have a Salamander tripple 20 in silver and Maple.

    The Bello is a beautiful well built rack.Wire management is the only thing I didn't care for but with some time spent well,you can make very clean and effective wire runs.it does have a metal screen back to tie your wires 2.

    Look at my pic and you'll see.I'll post some more.

    I was just looking at audio racks at CC and I could swear I saw that one there. It was $199.00. It had the wire mesh in the back too.

    I went back to CC and it was a Z-line rack but it looks very similar to the pic of the Bello.
