Albums. I use these tough plastic cases (holds 10 records)

I use them for my audiophile lp's such as DCC, Mofi (Original Japan), CBS Mastersound and my major bands grouped together like Steely Dan, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Miles Davis, Louie Armstrong, ect.

it's right next to the Technics deck to the right of it and behind it. No rack space for it....the blue box...

 

[RogerD]

Nice setup and I like the chair too!

Thanks...the arm rest holds cocktails well...

Impressive setup... I got to get my room cleaned up as soon as few of the projects are done...

I like your turntable very much (wish I had one...) but somehow your fine tape machines do catch my eyes!
