Hey,
Has anyone mounted 200s in a 19" computer equipment rack? Does Outlaw make rack "ears" for the 200? (I hope that I won't have to make the ears myself.)
Thanks,
icks

NHT markets an amp that looks & has specs that are very similar to the 200, it’s called the A-1, and they sell rack mount ears, called E-1, for it. Follow this URL http://www.spearitsound.com/ and look for “NHT Evolution Specials” then “Evolution options” at the bottom.

I’d ask about the dimensions but I’ll bet they are identical. Paint color might be a problem.

Alternatively, you can have Middle Atlantic make a custom rackmount for you. More expensive, but you might be able to have one mount hold several M200s.

There are also several sizes of rack shelves available from Middle Atlantic and others.

This is a better question than I originally thought. The M-200 product page specifically states that it is "rack-size" product yet never mentions, either in the specs, gallery, or manual, wether or not it comes with rack ears!! I had just assumed by the marketing language that it came with rack ears and not really thought about it until now.

I would be curious why Outlaw would market a product as "rack-size", then promote it's rack height, yet not provide a convienent rack mount solution?

The M-200 does not come with rack ears. You can buy rack mount shelves off of e-Bay HERE . I have bought several rackmount shelves here for a good price and with outstanding service and delivery times.

I have ordered and received a pair of rack mount ears for the NHT A1 amplifier from OneCall. There is a picture of the ears at their site:

I will be buying the Outlaw M200's in about 2 months. I am saving up. I have never seen the amp and I am wondering if the ears that I have ordered and received will work on the M200. The rack mount ear mounts on the amp with two screw holes that are 2 cm apart, center to center (slightly more than 3/4 of an inch). The center of the holes are 11 mm back from the very front of the ear.

Does anyone have a close-up photo of the side of the M200 near the front that shows the hole or holes?

Thanks, Reed
