The Sonos Amp Multi Rack Mount converts a 1.5U Amp Multi into a 2U, full-width 19-inch rack component. Amp Multi's flat back slides onto the mount, and the single-piece metal design leaves a quarter rack unit of open space above and below each amplifier for convection cooling, so vent panels between units are not needed.
It is designed for custom integrators building equipment racks for whole-home audio and for commercial installs in restaurants, retail, offices and hospitality venues where several Amp Multi units are stacked together.
