Solidsteel Hyperspike HY Series B Amp Stand

Reference Decoupled Amplifier Isolation Platform | Brisbane HiFi Audio Specialist

The Solidsteel HY-B is a compact single-tier amplifier platform from Solidsteel's reference Hyperspike (HY) Series, designed for high-performance stereo amplifiers, monoblocks, integrated amplifiers, and substantial power supplies.

Handcrafted in Italy, the HY Series applies Solidsteel's advanced mechanical-support architecture to high-mass audio electronics. The HY-B combines a 30 mm-thick high-density MDF platform with a rigid stainless-steel support structure and precision-adjustable floor spikes.

With a specified 120 kg load capacity and a more compact 480 mm platform depth, the HY-B provides dedicated support for substantial amplification while occupying less floor space than the deeper HY-A.

At Brisbane HiFi, we recommend the HY-B for systems requiring reference-grade amplifier support in a streamlined footprint.

Key Features & Mechanical Engineering Highlights

• Hyperspike-Inspired Mechanical Architecture: Incorporates Solidsteel's stainless-steel support and adjustable spike architecture developed for its reference Hyperspike platform systems.
• Compact 480 mm Platform Depth: The 404 × 480 mm usable platform is designed to accommodate many conventional high-end amplifiers and monoblocks without unnecessary floor depth.
• 120 kg Load Capacity: Rated for loads up to 120 kg, providing substantial support for heavy amplifiers and external power supplies within the specified limit.
• 30 mm Heavy-Duty MDF Platform: The dense MDF shelf provides a substantial mounting surface with a durable polymer laminate finish.
• Solid Stainless-Steel Support Structure: Stainless-steel pillars and terminations provide a rigid structural framework for the amplifier platform.
• Adjustable Stainless-Steel Spikes: Precision-adjustable floor spikes provide accurate levelling and a defined mechanical interface with the supporting floor.
• Protective S Series Floor Pads: Included floor discs help protect timber, laminate, tile, and other finished flooring from spike contact.
• Low-Profile Architecture: With an overall height of approximately 130 mm, the HY-B provides dedicated amplifier support without adding unnecessary equipment-rack height.

Product Specifications

Designed for Standard-Depth Amplification

The HY-B's 480 mm depth makes it particularly suitable for amplifiers and components with conventional chassis dimensions.

Potential applications include:

• Stereo power amplifiers
• Compact monoblocks
• Integrated amplifiers
• Class A amplifiers
• Valve power amplifiers
• External linear power supplies

For systems using separate monoblocks, individual HY-B platforms can provide dedicated support for each amplifier.

Equipment Compatibility & Load Planning

Before selecting the HY-B, Brisbane HiFi can assist with checking:

• Amplifier width
• Amplifier depth
• Equipment weight
• Platform coverage
• Cable clearance
• Ventilation requirements
• Available floor space

The equipment should remain appropriately supported within the platform's usable dimensions and specified 120 kg load capacity.

Amplifier Ventilation

The low-profile platform provides clearance beneath the amplifier while maintaining an open area around the chassis.

High-power Class A and valve amplifiers can generate substantial heat, so manufacturer-specified ventilation clearances should always be maintained.

Brisbane HiFi can assist with:

• Equipment positioning
• Platform sizing
• Ventilation planning
• Floor protection
• Cable routing
• Amplifier footprint assessment

Mechanical Stability & Floor Coupling

The adjustable stainless-steel spikes allow the HY-B to be accurately levelled on the supporting floor.

The supplied Solidsteel S Series floor pads provide a protective interface for timber, laminate, tile, and other finished flooring.

HY-A vs HY-B

The two HY platforms share the same basic heavy-duty positioning but differ primarily in depth:

The HY-B is the more compact option where 480 mm of platform depth is sufficient for the equipment being installed.
