Clearaudio Innovation Series Stand – HiFi Rack

The Clearaudio Innovation Series Stand is a high-end HiFi rack of solid aluminium and Panzerholz that decouples your components from resonance via adjustable spikes.

It belongs to Clearaudio's Innovation family and shares its material recipe – but isn't tied to any particular turntable. The trade accordingly lists it alongside the turntables and analogue accessories: it's designed for any serious HiFi chain, not just turntables from the Innovation range.

Why the Innovation Series Stand?

Resonances are the quiet enemy of any good system: they smear fine dynamics before you even notice more was possible. The Innovation Series Stand works with solid aluminium, Panzerholz and an aluminium top plate per level. Very solid spikes decouple the rack so thoroughly that even heavy components stand calm. Honestly: putting a high-quality turntable on a wobbly shelf would be a shame for both.

What you get

A modular system you tailor to your room: you choose the number of levels and the overall height yourself. The aluminium parts come in silver or black, the Panzerholz left natural or in piano lacquer, black or white. That way the rack either disappears discreetly into the background or becomes the matching plinth for your turntable. Because every configuration turns out different, we put yours together individually with you.

Who is the Innovation Series Stand for?

For anyone who wants to set up a high-quality analogue or high-end chain cleanly and with low resonance – and for whom a piece of furniture is also meant to do acoustic work. Straight talk: for a single lightweight streamer or a compact system, the rack is clearly overkill. And if your equipment weighs less than the stand underneath it, your budget is better spent on the equipment first – tell us, and we'll sort that out with you honestly.

Our verdict

The Innovation Series Stand isn't a pretty side table with a HiFi label, but a rack that does genuine acoustic work. Anyone playing in this league gets a foundation here that grows with them instead of a stopgap. Tell us what will sit on it and what your room looks like – then we'll configure it to fit.

Frequently asked questions

Does the stand belong to the Innovation series and does it only fit under Innovation turntables?

It belongs to Clearaudio's Innovation family and shares its material concept of aluminium and Panzerholz. It isn't tied to any particular model, though: because height and levels are freely configurable, it carries any turntable and any electronics – including from other manufacturers.

Which components suit the Innovation Series Stand?

High-quality turntables, pre- and power amplifiers, streamers and heavy source components. The aluminium top plates carry even heavy turntables securely, the spikes decouple each level from footfall and case resonance. In short: anything that's meant – and allowed – to sit calmly.

How many levels does the rack have and how tall is it?

The rack is modular – you choose the number of levels and the overall height yourself. From a compact two-level build to a tall multi-level configuration, everything can be tailored to your room and your components. Tell us what will sit on it, and we'll put together the right configuration.

What finishes is the Innovation Series Stand available in?

The aluminium parts come in silver or black, combined with Panzerholz natural or in piano lacquer, black or white. That way you match the rack visually to your turntable and your interior, instead of placing a foreign body in your living room.
