Rack Mount Strato

Well-known member
Are there rack mount vs non-rack mount versions of the Strato or all Stratos capable of being rack mounted if you buy the rack mount kit?

Thanks
 
All Strato players can be rack mounted, using the rack-mount kit (KMOUNT- STRATO).
 
Keep in mind there are actually three mounts for Strato players. You can see all three mounts in the link provided by telem in the previous post. The first mount shown is for the current Strato-"S" (1RU) model, the second is for the Strato-C (can hold two "C's"), and the third is for the original Strato (2RU). The correct mount for the current Strato-S is: KMOUNT-K0509-1. Obviously rack mounting is not required, but all can be mounted if preferred. You need to know which model you have if looking to acquire a rack mount.

Is there an after market rack mount that can accommodate a Strato C and M300 in 1U space? The round bottom on the M300 makes it incompatible with the square cut out on the Strato C mount.
 
I don't know the answer, but I've never seen one. You may have to pick up a shelf mount (I use MA) and just place them side by side.

We don’t make a mount that would accommodate both. I can tell you from personal experience building my home theater that Middle Atlantic will make you a rack shelf with a custom faceplate that accommodates multiple devices. This is especially easy if they already have faceplates for the individual devices (since that means that they have all of the precise measurements).
