FS - Salamander Synergy Quad 245 (Cherry/Black) - Renton, WA

Asking $400...

Salamander Synergy Quad 245 model, selling due to smaller rack need. Cherry wood w/ black aluminum posts. I picked this up from the first owner a few months ago for a second AV system, but this is a bit too big for the room, plus I don't need all the shelf space for the planned equipment.

If you know about Salamander racks you know they are high-quality furniture pieces and are completely customizable and expandable as your needs grow. I have used the Synergy system for about 15-20 years now and will probably never use anything else. Though they are pricey if bought new they are worth every penny and can last a lifetime if treated well.

Overall size is approx 87"W x 20"D x 21" high. Outer bay shelves are infinitely adjustable (two total) while the center channel shelf is essentially fixed. Overall in great shape, though there are some small circular indentations on the top shelf where the previous owner must have had a heavier TV on top. But most likely your new TV or gear will simply cover it right up. I tried to show this in the photos,,,

This is also listed online on the local online classifieds, but am asking a few $$ less here on the Polk forum. Local pickup only, for obvious reasons...unless you want to spring for shipping which would be pricey!

Here's general info on the rack for sale, but feel free to ask any questions:

    Pretty sure you could wrap this in a bunch of USPS flat rate envelopes taped together and pay the one fee. I've seen it a million times.

    @msg - not sure why you'd bother to post that msg here as it adds zero value to any discussion, Unless you can back that claim up with proof, of course.

    This rack is still for sale.

    @ msg - OK, sorry if I came across too grumpy up there. Maybe if you had followed up with "On a serious note, Salamander makes nice racks..." I wouldn't have thought anything of it. And I would have given you props if you photo-shopped something up...

    @ VR3 - I'll take that as a self-conscious compliment as I really need to exercise more!

    @ toolfan66 - my 'serious cap' is now off...message understood...

    Hoping the Quad rack sells this evening as two locals pinged me over the weekend. Next up for sale are two other Synergy racks, also cherry/black: S20 + S30 extension + S20 extension.

  • This might be a stupid question, but why didn’t you list that you had more matching pieces available?

    I don't have a good answer to that. I figured that there would be more opportunity to sell them individually as the market for someone looking for these exact three pieces would be much smaller than say, someone who only wanted the Quad unit for their TV setup. Plus I've only had time to clean up and adjust one of the towers so I was waiting until the second was completed before listing them both. I thought about breaking them down for extra parts, but I really don't see them getting used anytime soon.

    And finding local-enough buyers also adds some challenges as shipping would be expensive - unless I hire @msg as my logistics consultant (OK, just joking!!). Plus with COVID the last two years and me being a fantastic procrastinator - well, that adds up to a whole lotta nothing that gets done.

    Ironically, I also have two add'l single-wide racks that I need to sell (S20 and S40, both cherry/black as well) that I've had for a few years sitting unused. Not to mention extra doors, drawers, back panels, hardware, etc...I just need to do an inventory of what I have, then part it all out individually via a mega-listing F/S post.
