What You Need to Know

A Rack Built to Grow With Your System

The Pangea Audio Vulcan 5-Shelf Audio Rack gives your stereo gear a strong, open home. Five sturdy shelves hold your amp, turntable, and other gear. Steel tubes bolt together with strong metal rods, so the rack stays solid even when it's loaded with heavy gear.

Each shelf can hold up to 75 lbs, and the whole rack can safely hold up to 350 lbs. Shelves are made of dense MDF wood, wrapped in a tough vinyl skin that wipes clean easily. The open design leaves room for air to flow around your gear.

Easy Setup, Level on Any Floor

Putting this rack together takes no tools at all. The steel tubes and shelves bolt together by hand in just a few minutes. All the hardware you need comes right in the box.

The feet are steel spikes. You can turn them up or down a little to level the rack on a bumpy floor. They also help stop shaking from reaching your gear. Four floor discs are included to protect hard floors like wood or tile.

A Size and Finish to Fit Your Room, With Room to Grow

The rack stands 39.75 inches tall, about 24 inches wide, and 18 inches deep. The extra height gives you a full five shelves of storage, so it holds a lot more gear without taking up more floor space.

You can pick from four finishes: Black, Rosenut, Espresso, or Carbon Fiber. Each one is smooth and easy to clean. If your system grows even more, you can add a sixth shelf later with an add-on kit.

Features & Specifications

Steel Tube Frame — Powder-coated steel tubes and metal rods lock into a rock-solid frame that stays steady under heavy gear.

Five Sturdy Shelves — Each shelf holds up to 75 lbs, for 350 lbs in all — plenty for amps, turntables, and more.

Open-Air Design — The open frame lets air flow freely around your gear, helping it run cooler.

Tool-Free Assembly — The rack bolts together by hand in minutes, with all hardware included.

Grows With Your System — An add-on kit lets you grow the rack to six shelves as your collection grows.

"I wanted something that was durable, looked good, was very easy to work with, and was flexible as far as running wires in the back and provided adequate ventilation."

"This thing [the Vulcan five-shelf rack] is only $219 for a high-end audio rack… Even though the MDF [shelving] is vinyl-wrapped, it's scratch-resistant. It's actually better than some of the finished woods out there, because this vinyl is so tough. If you are moving a component back and forth, I would actually prefer this over a stained wood, because those are a lot more delicate."

"This is a steel post construction that basically twists in. There is a threaded steel bolt that connects each post, and it clamps down. They have these little rubber isolation pads [between shelves]… and that's going to give you less transfer of vibration from shelf to shelf. The posts themselves are powder coated to be resonant-resistant and scratch-resistant, so, again, very durable. There's not really any ring at all whatsoever."

"I really like that attention to detail as far as the durability and all that… It's really hard to find a high-quality audio rack that looks good and is in this price range."

"The build quality is excellent… As far as the strength goes, each shelf supports up to 75 pounds, and the total weight support of this rack is 350 pounds, which is absolutely phenomenal for an open-frame rack, and at this price."

"The modularity is a good selling point… Giving you the ability of customizing it completely is what really sets the Vulcan rack apart, because it's built extremely well, but then you get to customize it, and it's still affordable.

Positive Feedback Magazine Award Winner

Positive Feedback magazine honored the Vulcan with a Writer's Choice Award for 2017. Lamenting the general lack of affordable racks and stands for budget-conscious audiophiles, Steve Lefkowicz notes that "Pangea Audio (sold through Audio Advisor) has taken up the void with a very nice and effective set of racks and stands at very reasonable prices."

According to Steve's review in Positive Feedback, "I used two of these racks in my exhibit at the LA Audio… and they both played great even with the powerful bass of the big Tekton Double Impacts. I added an extra shelf to one and a taller 10-inch extension to one shelf for a total price of just $280 for both racks."
