The Uk’s Monitor Audio Group has launched a new reimagined collection of Stax 2G high-fidelity furniture via its Blok brand. The units feature small, concealed, flush-fitting rubber bungs within the supports that carry the weight of shelves and any equipment that sits on them. These can be removed to allow the supports to be mass-loaded with inert acoustic material, for greater structural rigidity of the entire unit, while also greatly reducing any vibrations and resonances that might occur within the music system itself.

Silicon isolation pads are also integrated between each shelf and into the base of the support structure in a bid to ensure that shelf absorption works at its most optimum, reducing resonances and vibration being carried through the shelves.

Stax 2G also utilises a bespoke foot design that facilitates height adjustment and allows users to select spikes or rubber feet, depending on the surface upon which it is to be placed. The company explains that the: “intuitive foot design ensures that Stax 2G can be levelled exactly, delivering a perfectly flat base for the high-fidelity equipment placed on it.”

The units come in three finishes – black glass with high-gloss black supports, natural ash plywood with satin white supports and a black ash plywood with natural walnut supports. There are two types of shelves – tempered glass finished in black or modern plywood, in natural or black ash veneer.

Prices are: Stax 2G Shelf Base £275, Stax 2G Shelf 120 £225, Stax 2G Shelf 170 £250, Stax 2G Shelf 220 £275 and Stax 2G Shelf LP £300. The Stax 2G 3 Shelf Collection is £775 (with one Shelf Base and two Shelf 170s) and the Stax 2G 4 Shelf Collection is £1,050(1x Shelf Base, 2x Shelf 170s and a Shelf 220).
