Looks like a very different design than the hrs , cms etc ... always thought those racks could have the potential to suck the life out of certain components...but this is a suspension of some kind ?
too bad racks aren’t easy to try out in ones systems as cables.

Yes. I spoke to a lot of people who have used Artesania, HRS, etc and Artesania was the unanimous choice.
I thought about HRS, but your comments above have been my experience.
The Artesania is a unique design and offers multiple material options (all included) with the little feet that go under the chassis (not the units feet).
The racks are extremely well made, but freaking heavy!!
There are options for the feet of the rack and the feet for the chassis’. You can mix and match as well. They describe the sonic characteristics of each in the manual.

As noted above racks are difficult to audition. I have never been able to tell if I am "hearing" or not hearing a rack. It is almost a leap of faith until you get it in your system. These look interesting but I prefer the design of CMS and HRS both of which are a bit pricy.

Links to any reviews of HRS or CMS racks that describe them as sucking the life out of any components?

I've never heard a system with HRS or CMS racks sound "bad" let alone with the life sucked out. Must have been a tube set-up. :yahoo1:

Mike,
A few questions;
- what are retail prices on each of their rack options?
- in looking at the close-ups on their site, these look like the summation of some fine engineering however with all the screws and bolts, etc...I am not seeing how vibration is dissipated in the structure of it all; rather looks like in certain areas of the design, vibration may be propagated but I am unsure; would love more specifics here...
- what is the lead time if any from order to fulfillment? They say that they can build any option on the website but of course don't give an idea
- Have you seen a smooth order to fulfillment process from Europe to the US? An acoustic panel company from a neighboring country and the problems with US distro & fulfillment in the last 1+ years prompts this question...
They are beautiful and potentially very interesting to me but more info would be needed...thanks!
