Flexibility in design, wood looks very nice, support rods are solid steel.

Wood shelves resonate some, spike feet are a very poor design; going higher than 4 shelves makes for a wobbly rack.

I purchased a Sorice Asana system several years ago for a relatively small collection of equipment. The Modular rack design worked reasonably well. Since that time I have upgraded to a reference-quality rack for my high-end 2-channel system, but I am still purchasing and using Asana racks for my "lesser" systems (home theater system, bedroom systems).

Real wood, easily adaptable and you can ADD ON LATER

none found yet

I looked at many systems and none were anything like what I wanted. With this rack I could pick different options, including wood finish, and add or subtract options for probably 1/3 the price and it is REAL wood!

The most cost effective, highest quality audio rack system available. I spent months looking for a suitable component rack at local HiFi stores. Most were overpriced and not even suitable for my needs. Asana to the rescue! By chance, I received their brochure in the mail. I purchased the 4R combo rack with 6 black MDF shelves for $239.00 + $19.00 for the optional set of 4 casters to enable me to move the rack for easy access to make connections as components were added or replaced. I should mention that the steel support columns are SOLID steel, and not hollow, tubular metal. During shipping, one of the black MDF shelves was damaged. The edge of the shelf was chipped. I called Sorice and they sent a new shelf (at no cost to me, not even shipping charges) which I received in two days. I offered to ship back the damaged shelf but they told me that wasn''t necessary. How''s that for customer service? I am going to convert my vertical 6 shelf rack to a horizontal unit and it will only cost me a few dollars to do so since Sorice has all the necessary parts to make such a conversion a snap. Do yourself a favor and check Sorice out before you spend two to three times as much for lesser quality. My highest recommendation for quality and service... You will not find a friendlier group of mail order people to do business with anywhere.

I agree with all the other Sorice customers here. I own an Aragon 8008X5 power amp and needed it to fit in a rack with all my other AV gear. The amp is 24 inches deep and nothing out there would accommodate it. Sorice built a custom shelf, which included three pair of feet, for strength and stability. This rack holds two power amps (including the Aragon), a Tice Power block, large AV controller, DVD-Audio player, subwoofer amp, S-VCR, Laser Disc Player, cassett deck , an Outlaw ICBM unit, and a satelite receiver. The shelves are oak and match the Pioneer rear projector it sits next to and it looks beautiful. The unit is strong, sturdy, and upgradable for future add-ons. This thing is amazing. No other company could help me for less than $1800. Sorice came through. I custom designed the spacing to perfectly hold all my equipment and I had the satisfaction of putting it together. I purchased the combo 6R rack and added the custom shelf all for under $500. Sorice gives you the option of standard feet, spikes, or wheels. I chose both the spikes and the wheels but installed the wheels. The sales staff are especially pleasant to work with. They make you feel like they really care. Thank you Sorice.

Strength, style, flexibility

Dealing with Sorice was the most pleasant experience I have had with a mail order company. The product lives up to all of the promises in the brochure. I ordered a Combo 6R which is a 7 shelf component rack. The quality cannot be beat- the shelves are solid wood (very hard to find) and the supports are steel (with no rust- another plus). Overall the unit is very sturdy and the Walnut is beautiful. Customer service was very friendly and helped me find something to suit my needs. Even the packaging was well thought out. The price was reasonable for the size and quality of the unit ($399) and I would highly recommend this company to anyone.

I also purchased a storage cabinet for my CD's- they are perfect! Solid walnut exactly matches my rack and I am planning to get one of their bookshelves this month!

Fine designs, and craftmenship

Sorice products are some of the best I have ever used. They are durable but have such a contempary, light appearance that they are like no others. I have bought Cd cases and Shelves (6 sides), 3 on each side. They are spacious, but don't take up much space.Excellent helpful staff as well. These products are bought threw the mail. They are packed excellent as well

I searched for a rack system for a long time before choosing Sorice's Asana system. The racks are wood/steel construction and come in a choice of several finishes ranging from Light Oak to Black. You basically get to build your rack yourself - pick how many shelves you want, what the spacing should be (6", 9", and 13" options), and if you want to build the rack vertically or horizontally. You can choose feet, spikes, or casters for the base. I really like having the ability to add shelving or change the look of my rack as my system grows. I purchased a rack with storage for 6 components for around $400. Assembly was extremely easy. This rack is incredibly sturdy and attractive. Mine's open, so you can see the cabling in the rear, but Sorice also sells backing for the racks, or they also make cabinets. In addition to rack systems, Sorice also builds really nice media storage cabinets that can be stacked and linked in a variety of ways - I ordered storage for 600 CDs last week. The staff has been incredibly helpful - you can call them and tell them what components you have, and where you're going in the future, and they'll help you design a rack that custom suits your needs. Excellent product.

Durable, but very stylistic

None. But I wish dealers carried their products. So that one could view more accruately

This is not a furniture company. This company disigns home audio furniture with an audio knowlegge in mind.

I am very pleased with this rack and the service from sorice. I looked into racks from various manufacturers before I decided on this rack. It is very sturdy, though the vibration damping is not the best. I have also added onto my rack from time to time (very easy to add/assemble compared to the salamander product)as I could afford and the modularity of this rack is probably the best in class. The quality of the shelves (I bought the black MDF) and the steel supports is excellent. The service from their sales folk is second to none, especially in the mail order business. Overall I strongly recommend this rack over the other similarly priced racks.
