I recently ordered an Adona rack to house my audio components when a remodel allowed me to locate my sources, etc. closer to the amplifiers. The rack arrived in perfect condition from the Adona Corporation, recommended by several members here.

I had some absolute size limitations, especially in height, that had to be addressed for the rack to fit the space. Adona was very accommodating, sizing the uprights of the rack such that all four shelves were of sufficient size to handle my components and keeping the total height within my specifications. The rack is finished in basic black. I wanted it to disappear and it certainly does that! Each shelf is a granite/composite sandwich, sitting on isolation bumpers. The entire rack rests on points, with indented discs underneath to protect my hardwood floors. (New hardwood, BTW). Each shelf is adjustable for balance, and the whole thing is very inert once assembled. It weighs about 140#.
Assembly is a bit tricky at first, but quickly gets easier as you figure out a couple tricks. Overall assembly time was about one hour. Size is 13" high X 47" wide X 25" deep. The 4 shelves are each 18" square and an inch thick. The black granite top finish on the shelves is very attractive. Since I opted for the "basic" version, the uprights are basic black aluminum channel and finished well enough to match the rest of the piece. Wood trim options are available for the edges of the shelves, etc. for those who desire something more "visible".
Pictures will follow once I get a new camera battery! Overall, I am very satisfied with the Adona rack, and will post impressions of use/performance once the room is finished and the audio system dialed back in.
Here's a stock photo of the rack:
This rack is taller than mine, with the upper component space being shorter on mine. The cross-members under the shelves are black on mine. I also opted for solid uprights rather than individually spiked segments, which allowed the rack to be lower.
