New Classic Rack Mount Kits
Parasound rack mount kit

Each NewClassic model is designed for easy, secure rack mounting in a standard EIA equipment rack. Each model's front panel height conforms to the EIA standard size for rack mounting and removing the four feet from the bottom side takes less than a minute and requires only a phillips-head screwdriver.

NewClassic rack mount kits include heavy gauge steel mounting brackets that bolt to the sides of each unit's chassis.

Each rack mount kit also includes eight insulated shoulder washers, to isolate the brackets and rack bolts from the rails of the rack. We provide these for your convenience because we know that audible hum is a common problem that results from ground loops when various units' chassis make metal-metal contact through the equipment rack.

RMK11 1 rack space for Model 275
RMK22 2 rack spaces for Models 2125, 2100
RMK33 3 rack spaces for Models 7100, 5125, 2250
RMK44 4 rack spaces for Model 5250
