The APEX-TWO is the most compact build of Forged Audio's APEX modular stand system. It pairs the APEX-50 base platform with the 250 upper module, giving you two full-width positions: a generous 280 mm bay for an amplifier that needs room to breathe, and an open top shelf for a turntable, streamer or CD player. The best rack is one you can't hear, and everything about the APEX is designed to stay out of the way and let your equipment do its job.
Shelves designed to dissipate
Each shelf is a 620 × 400 × 36 mm board made from two bonded plies of bamboo. The bond line between the plies acts as a mechanical energy break, so a single shelf carries two independent dissipation mechanisms, and bamboo's naturally random internal fibre geometry spreads vibration broadly rather than resonating at a single frequency. The four Ø38 mm posts per tier are solid steel, not hollow tube and not aluminium. They anchor the structure and channel energy down through the supplied isolation spikes and floor discs. The bamboo absorbs. The steel anchors. Between them, vibration has nowhere to go.
Room to grow
Because APEX is fully modular, the APEX-TWO is a starting point rather than a finished article. Every module shares the same thread and base fitting, so you can add further tiers on top as your system grows, mixing heights to suit your components, with Forged Audio recommending a finished rack below 1.25 metres.
Details that work both ways
A sculpted edge groove on each shelf works as a rear cable channel or a forward styling detail, and there is 500 mm of clear width across the front of every tier. Bamboo grain is unique to each shelf, so no two APEX racks are the same. Built to disappear. Designed to last.
