APOLLO – STORM 10 is part of the Atacama Storm series.
Do you want professional support for your hi-fi system, but prefer oak? Then this APOLLO – STORM 10, crafted from solid British oak, will be the perfect modular hi-fi support for you and will become a stunning centerpiece for displaying, supporting, and isolating hi-fi equipment in the home.
Each shelf module was precision-cut on a CNC machine to ensure consistent fit and performance, and then hand-finished by dedicated craftsmen to enhance the visual appeal of the natural wood.
The APOLLO – STORM 10 hi-fi rack is more than just an attractive piece of furniture. It was primarily designed to support the performance of the hi-fi equipment housed within it.
With a choice of four bearing heights and constructed from warp-resistant 27 mm solid hardwood composite wood for strength and resonance absorption, each of the individual modules provides three additional levels of isolation.
First, a polymer isolation disc separates the outer column collar from the wood, forming a barrier between each of the wood and outer leg components. The second dividing line is the so-called leg tip. This is also a polymer construction, so the outer leg collar is completely removed from the resonant sound feedback that is present when playing music. A press-fit brass screw thread was inserted within each of the leg tip caps (brass was chosen because of its slow energy proliferation rate). The third and final stage of insulation was achieved with the use of fully adjustable 8 mm bright galvanized steel spikes and matching locking nuts.
Please note: Oak is a natural material, so various color variations, such as nuances in the form of knots and other structural changes, are part of the essential beauty of this hi-fi product. Each board module is aesthetically unique and will darken over time as part of the wood aging process, especially when exposed to sunlight. This difference will increase even further once you add new additional shelves at a later date. Therefore, if possible, purchase your APOLLO – STORM 10 as a complete set, taking your future storage needs into account.
All available leg sets, from base to 135 mm, 185 mm, and 235 mm height, come in a silk black finish. This series also perfectly complements Atacama’s extensive range of speaker stands.
Any combination of shelf modules can be used and placed on a base module up to a maximum height of 1000 mm.
The weight capacity is 35 kg per level, depending on the overall storage requirements.
APOLLO – STORM 10 is manufactured in the UK by Atacama and, due to the exclusive use of solid oak, takes a few days longer to manufacture than standard sound furniture.
Please note: Due to the exclusivity of this product, delivery delays may occur. We therefore ask you to contact us in advance either by phone or email.

From Aerospace to Audio Excellence
The story of Atacama began in 1969 as a supplier in the demanding world of aerospace. The company earned the trust of renowned clients such as Rolls-Royce and British Aerospace, perfecting its skills in high-precision metalworking.A Passion for Sound Ignited
However, a passion for audio remained very much alive within the company. In 1987, Atacama began developing a revolutionary HiFi loudspeaker stand. Initial reactions were positive, but a focus on the core aerospace business meant the project was initially put on hold.A Dream Comes True
In 1989, a new family member joined the company, bringing the potential of these loudspeaker stands back into the spotlight. In the early 1990s, economic challenges compelled the company to diversify its product range. Atacama reimagined the concept of the loudspeaker stand, recognizing its unique qualities: Performance-Oriented Design: Superior acoustic isolation and excellent value for money compared to industrial-looking competing products. Visual Design: A design aesthetic that perfectly complements high-end HiFi systems.The Atacama Brand Takes Flight
In 1992, the company introduced the elegant "SE" series of loudspeaker stands under the Atacama brand. A targeted marketing campaign—along with glowing reviews from *HiFi Choice* and *What HiFi?*—helped the SE24 model earn the coveted "Best Buy" and "Hi-Fi Accessory of the Year" awards.A Commitment to Innovation
Building on this success, Atacama expanded its product range in 2001 with the introduction of the award-winning Equinox series of HiFi racks. The company's technical expertise led to the exploration of new materials, with bamboo composites coming particularly into focus starting in 2011. This innovative approach yielded not only sonic and functional performance advantages but also offered an eco-friendly alternative to traditional hardwoods.The Apollo Brand Joins the Family
The acquisition of Apollo HiFi in 2013 enabled the company to pursue distinct developmental paths. While Atacama focuses on bamboo and performance-oriented design, Apollo caters to customers who value a traditional wood aesthetic as well as practical features, such as vinyl storage solutions.A Tradition of Award-Winning Design
Over the years, both brands have consistently garnered acclaim. Atacama racks—such as the Eris Eco 5, the Evoque Eco 60-40 Standard SE, and the Evoque Eco 60-40 SE2 (crafted from bamboo)—were awarded the "Equipment Support of the Year" title between 2013 and 2023. The Moseco speaker stand also achieved a remarkable streak of annual awards from *What HiFi?* Apollo’s modular Storm 6 HiFi system, as well as the new Atacama Elite Eco 24 rack, recently received the prestigious 5-star rating as well.The Future of HiFi Furniture
Atacama’s passion for innovation remains undiminished. The speaker stands in the NeXXus series impressively demonstrate this commitment, offering extensive customization options regarding height and top-plate size. Thanks to the recent acquisition of the HiFi Racks brand, the company is poised to further expand its range of HiFi furniture and finishes in the future. Atacama Audio and Apollo HiFi remain dedicated to a singular goal: not merely to meet expectations for HiFi speaker stands and AV rack systems, but to exceed them. Customers can expect further innovative products in the coming years as well.1 x Atacama - APOLLO - STORM 10 Level Base
