• Our stock platforms are hand finished with Clear Satin that beautifully enhances the striking natural grain character of our air-dried Ambrosia maple. We also offer three made-to-order toned finishes: Natural Cherry, Deep Rosewood, and Satin Black. Clear Satin is the default finish option. Choose a made-to-order option from the Platform Finish drop-down menu.
• Platforms with clear satin finish are stock items that normally ship in 2-4 business days and are offered with our 30-day money back guarantee. Made-to-order platforms are non-refundable, require a 50% deposit, and take +/- 8 weeks to ship. Please be sure to review our Terms & Conditions.
• Each Bevelled Component Stand is pre-drilled with countersunk footer options for mounting it on either Isoblocks or attached brass footers. The default suspension option is a set of four Original Isoblock 1s, isolation footers that support loads up to 105 lbs. Choose other Isoblock options or brass footers from the Support Options drop-down menu.
• Use Isoblock suspension when using this stand to mount a component directly on an uncarpeted floor, shelf or tabletop.
• When using this stand for speakers, use either standard or Radiused Low Heavyfeet for uncarpeted surfaces.
• When mounting components and speakers on a rug or carpet, use Heavyfeet For Carpet that will penetrate through the pile and anchor the Component Stand to the subfloor.
• For general sizing, we recommend choosing a Component Stand that is about 2" wider and deeper than the component it will support; more margin improves sound further.
• If you don't already have brass footers to couple your component to this platform, we recommend ordering an 24" x 18" VCS with 4" Component Stand to get the full benefit of Mapleshade's upgrade system.
• Because maple is an organic material, the exact weight of each platform varies slightly. The distinctive character of Ambrosia maple's natural grain coloring and figuring is unique for each platform. Our Amish craftsmen hand-plane these platforms from the rough-cut, air-dried 2-1/2" maple to remove coarseness and imperfections from the sawmill. Typically this yields a finished 2" thickness but, because of variations in the rough-cut timber, the exact thickness can vary by 3/16".
