Thanks to Jennifer Keith for the pro photos

I made this specifically for a cool customer in Quebec to match his already kick ass Massif rack. He needed 3 grooves, I don’t recall why. This Spalted beech comes from our secret upstairs drying room.

I’m a big fan of Audience gear. This power conditioner is the shat. Shouts out to @lennycoco9 and @audience_av for a fine and well built product.

No filter. We’ll have a lot more Massif record weights soon. This one is Brazilian rosewood but the new ones are made from Gabon ebony. They’re sweet AF.

Something special this way comes....

This walnut tack with maple TT platform turned out pretty nicely. What’s everyone think?

This rack is so friggin’ huge. Check out how the 12 album is dwarfed by the length of this beast. Full ambrosia maple with some curly maple in there too.

This stunner does appear to be a mile tall, however, it is on a dolly that’s almost 5 high. As per usual we hand chose each piece of walnut, never order it sight-unseen. There’s several wood rack manufacturers out there and the biggest difference I perceive is that Massif racks are much more beautiful. So choosing each piece of timber will continue!!!!! No excuses!

Solid ash triple wide Karma rack w/black walnut legs. It’s very bright in the shop today so it’s sort of hard to see the colour variation in the legs. The 2 front legs have nearly identical and opposite blonde streaks running down their front facing corners. BUT the real peach is this @rubiomonocoatusa black stain I used . I’d never used it before but colour me noir because it’s the nicest black stain I’ve ever used. Rich and compelling!!!

Coffee and puppy.

Fun fact! Massif is Eggleston Works coolest dealer north of the Canadian/American border. #egglestonworks #audiophile #audiodealer #hifi #speakers #madeinusa #yall

Sapele and ash together at last!
