Jaspers 170-4-150B

Frankly, I wish Jaspers had some competition because there's definitely room for improvement. As it stands though, this is by far the best stand for your synths on the market.

The 15kg-limit holders are more stable than the 30kg-limit holders of a competitor, which I used before getting a Jaspers.

The price is only justified by the fact that there is NO better stand to buy for multiple synths. I feel like it would have been dropped in half if that wasn't the case, but as things stand - it is what it is.

I'm also surprised that for such and old and established company, the idea of adding assembly instructions is so distant. You might need half an hour to wrap your head around what needs to be done. Afterwards it's extremely simple, but I feel like everyone goes through the same frustration at the beginning, and it can all be circumvented if Jaspers just decided to print a single piece of paper to go along with the stand.

Perfect for a home or professional studio. It brings together many devices, reducing the work area, keeping everything with easy and fast access.

My main goal is to compact all the devices in one space, thus freeing up more space around me. The second purpose is to reorganize the devices I already have, or add more devices in the future, or even take advantage of other utilities.

Pros:
- Great flexibility of fit and customization.
- Excellent quality.
- Lightweight, sturdy, and safe.
- Excellent appearance.

Cons:
- None

In fact this support is high and wide, but if there is room to accommodate it, I have no doubt, it is the best choice due to its great versatility.

I was afraid to buy it, compared to other keyboard holders, because of the price, or because of the stability, etc. But I was surprised when I set it up. It exceeded my expectations. It's a good investment.

this is my first synth rack and I felt like I should just start with the best. Thankfully, I got that decision correct. The Jaspers rack is big, wide, tall, deep, and incredibly stable. I have at any time between 12 and 15 devices on various additional holders that I purchased to go along with the rack. They all work great and hold fast. That said, I do not push the weight limits at all. I did add a strengthening bar to my second tier up to provide a second place for my heavier synths like the MatrixBrute but it still lives on it's original stand. This rack is doing well as the home for my Moog Collection and drum machines.

The pros:
Once setup, it looks fantastic and is sturdy as hell - especially considering how light an empty rack is. Flexible system that allows for many different configurations. Many well thought-out accessories to house all your gear in one spot.

The cons:
Instructions are sparse, took a bit of reverse-engineering to figure out the best way to assemble. Getting the holders in the right spot and even across both sides is very time-consuming and fiddly to get correct. No accessories for cable management - I wish there were some sort of container for the bottom to hold power strips and excess cabling. Can be a tip hazard if you aren't careful, would be nice if there were "official" counterweights for the back.

Overall, I would highly recommend this rack despite a few little frustrations.

I needed to find a solution for the various monophonic synths, larger 49-61 key polyphonic synths, drum machines, step sequencers, boutique modules...

My workflow was broken by having to connect/reconnect and not being able to quickly access my hardware.

Easy to setup, strong and stable and accessories allow easy expansion.

The lowest tier can accommodate large heavy keyboards but if you get a sheet of MDF/Wood you can create a desk for all those small modules/sequencers/boxes that don't seem to fit anywhere else.

Sitting at that level I can still reach the upper tiers with the synths angled quite sharply. Standing it is easy to reach from the lowest tier to the top simultaneously. It's stable: I have my Juno 106 on the topmost tier angled at around 45 degrees and it feels solid.

Pros? It does exactly what you expect it to do, it can be easily expanded

Cons? None
