AVDeco Zeus Z323

This open but sturdy design looks as good as the brand new Plasma TV you want to put on it. It uses a strong, light metal called Duralumin to lend rigidity and strength to an already esthetically pleasing structure. It is bolted together cleanly and neatly with steel machine screws as well as having clever caps and things to hide any unsightly bits.

There are vibration isolators between each sheet of glass and the frame so noise transmission to your gear is reduced. The glass is highly polished and tempered for shatter-resistance. The middle shelf glass is 10mm thick – much better for those heavy pieces of A/V gear than the cheaper brands, which use 8mm or even 6mm glass. The top is even thicker, at 12mm – to safely support heavy video displays.

Esthetics and utility combine seamlessly in this piece. The feet are adjustable and can be replaced with ball casters for portability or even spikes for maximum noise isolation. The “spine” in the back of the unit is a hollow-tube wire management system with 2” holes every few inches – both on the front side and the back side for those large A/V connectors and cable bundles.

Lastly, lasting good looks are ensured by a combination of anodized coating on the aluminum pieces, chrome plating on the little hardware bits, and powder coat on the wire management system.

Materials:

• The side pieces and horizontal supports are Duralumin.
• *Duralumin is a remarkably strong material made from Aluminum, Copper, Magnesium, and Manganese that is easy to work when raw and then becomes very hard after heat treatment. It’s used extensively in aircraft due to its strength and lightness.
• Supports are sandblasted and then electrostatically coated with a durable layer to prevent corrosion and discoloration of the metal.
• The support rods are Duralumin, and have been coated with a protective layer to prevent corrosion.

Fasteners:

• Connectors for the glass have vibration isolators to damp unwanted vibrations.
• Glass connectors on top have chrome-plated Duralumin caps over them for looks & durability.
• The fasteners for the uprights are nickel-plated steel socket head cap screws.
• Each stand comes with the hex tool to assemble the side supports.

Glass:

• The middle shelf glass is 10mm thick. The standard for most furniture is between 6mm and 8mm.
• The top shelf is a whopping 12mm thick – to safely hold those heavy Plasma TVs.
• The glass is tempered so it does not present a danger in the unlikely event it should be shattered.
• The standard glass is a light green tint. This color has been found to be the most pleasing to the eye initially and also not does not get old or start to look “cheap” after you’ve owned the stand for awhile as some other colors might. It also fits in with more décor styles than other colored glasses.
• In addition, an optional clear glass is currently available for those situations where green glass just won’t work.

Cable Management:

• Wire management holes through the spine are about 2” diameter and spaced to be near the center of each shelf space (for comparison, a DVI connector is about 1.5 to 1.75 inches wide). The spine itself is hollow and wires can be run up/down inside the spine.
