APOLLO – STORM 6 XL is part of the Atacama Storm series.
Are you seeking professional support for your Hi-Fi system, but prefer the rare Sapelli Mahogany finish? Then this APOLLO – STORM 6 XL rack, crafted from solid wood, will be the perfect modular Hi-Fi support for you—becoming a stunning centerpiece for the display, support, and isolation of your home audio equipment.
Each shelf module has been precision-cut on a CNC machine to ensure consistent fit and performance, and then hand-finished by dedicated craftsmen to enhance the visual appeal and natural beauty of the wood.
The APOLLO – STORM 6 XL Hi-Fi rack is more than just an attractive piece of furniture; it was designed first and foremost to enhance the performance of the audio equipment housed upon it.
Featuring four shelf heights and constructed from torsionally rigid 27 mm solid hardwood composite—chosen for its strength and resonance-absorbing properties—each individual module incorporates three additional stages of isolation.
First, a polymer isolation disc separates the outer leg collar from the wood, creating a barrier between the wooden shelf and the outer leg components. The second line of separation is provided by the “leg spike cap.” This, too, features a polymer construction, ensuring that the outer leg collar remains completely isolated from the resonant acoustic feedback generated during music playback. A press-fit brass threaded insert is embedded within each of these leg spike caps (brass is selected for its slow energy propagation rate). The third and final stage of isolation is achieved through the use of fully adjustable 8 mm bright zinc-plated steel spikes. Please note: Oak is a natural material; consequently, various color variations—including nuances such as knots and other structural irregularities—are an integral part of the inherent beauty of this Hi-Fi product. Each shelf module is aesthetically unique and will darken over time as part of the natural wood aging process, particularly when exposed to sunlight.
All available leg packs—in heights of 135 mm, 185 mm, and 235 mm—are supplied in a satin black finish. This ensures that the series complements Atacama’s extensive range of loudspeaker stands perfectly.
Any combination of shelf modules may be used and stacked upon a base module, up to a maximum total height of 1000 mm.
The weight capacity is 35 kg per shelf level, subject to overall storage requirements.
The APOLLO – STORM 6 XL is manufactured in the UK by Atacama; due to the exclusive craftsmanship involving solid oak, its production takes a few days longer than that of standard audio furniture.

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.Atacama APOLLO STORM 6 XL Hi-Fi Rack in Sapelli Mahogany, with 4 shelf, consisting of:
