Bassocontinuo Classic Lyra XL4 2.1 – Modular High-End Audio Rack

Handmade in Italy | Four-leg construction | Vibration-controlled shelves | Multiple editions

The Bassocontinuo Classic Lyra XL4 2.1 brings Italian craftsmanship and purpose-built engineering to high-performance audio systems. Its four-leg modular structure combines solid machined metal supports, substantial 25 mm shelves, and a specialized decoupling system designed to provide a stable foundation for your components.

The updated Classic Line 2.1 design introduces Bassocontinuo's zero-shaking tightening system, which the manufacturer states increases stability by more than 50% compared with previous versions. Its modular construction allows owners to add shelves or adjust their rack configuration as their system evolves.

 

Available in a range of finishes and special editions, the Lyra XL4 2.1 offers a distinctive combination of performance-focused construction and contemporary Italian design.

Key Features

  • Four-leg modular construction: Solid machined metal supports with independent equipment shelves.

Important: Check Your Component's Foot Placement

Equipment compatibility

485 × 560 mm

19.09 × 22.05 inches (W × D)

Your component's feet must fit within this area.

The overall chassis can be wider than the distance between the rack's supports, provided the component's feet are correctly positioned and the equipment remains safely supported.

The manufacturer's dimension guide specifically illustrates acceptable and unacceptable equipment footprints. This is an important consideration for large power amplifiers and other oversized components.
