I want to get one of these to hold some vinyl. I intend to put it on top of a speaker, vertically. Will the middle divider hold my records safely?

Yes, you can use this item this way. I too used one of these units in this manner for quite awhile, and as mentioned I used wood glue as well. These are fairly strong for the material that thy are made of. I think it will not hold as many LPs this way as it would horizontally. I collect mostly Japanese pressings with their OBI's intact. These are the albums I had in this module when I used it vertically. I also had it full, but not packed for about 6 months, but I had mine beside my salamander stand , not on top of a speaker. Not sure if the vibrations might cause failure, but it will work vertically. Yes, you can use this item this way.

Yes, I believe it will...I think it may be unstable because of the center of gravity, but you will find out whether it falls or not!

Hi David, great question (and same thing I was wondering before I bought this). I've had my storage cabinet for several months now, standing vertically, with the top half completely loaded and the bottom less than half full and it's been rock-solid. I vouch for this thing and think you'll be in great shape. Hope this helps!

That's a good question. I have it on the floor as it's shown in the picture so the middle divider is just a divider. I'd suggest getting single cubes and stacking them vertically instead.

I'm using mine vertically for vinyl and not concerned about the weight. I should add that I used wood glue when I assembled the unit(s).
76602
I don't think so. In that configuration, only few dowels would hold the shelve into the cheap particle board

A more urgent question is: will this unit safely stay on top of your speaker. That would depend on how wide your speaker is. Im assuming it is a floor speaker at least and not a bookshelf speaker. If it can stay on top of it then I wouldn't worry too much about your records as they should be able to stay in place. But I don't know for sure as I don't currently have this type of setup.

I really don't know. I have my records in the shelf horizontally and the shelf accommodates the records nicely and safely. You could try it but keep an eye on it to see if it will hold your records safely.

From a structural stand point, possibly but because of the speaker in the top, if you block the top in any way you will diminish a significant portion of the audio performance. The driver on the top of the center channel is quite important to the overall performance of this speaker. In short I'd advise against it. You would be better off buying/making a small auxiliary shelf or stand that allows at least 2 inches of clearance above the top of the speaker.

The cabinet is made up of three components, each component is about 18" in height. So to answer your question, yes you can hold 3 shelves of vinyl LPs, but there will be about 5" of space at the top of each shelve. However, the depth of the shelve is only 6" which will leave about 7" of the LPs protruding. I would not advise this cabinet for LPs, it is specially build for CDs, DVD and games. Hope you find this information useful.

There's a small lid on top for headphones (to prevent the wire to messup). The disc tray is at the front. And I think is intended to stand up vertically.

yes. ps FYI i had some problems with this record player, some records would skip and when i contacted the company they told me to TAPE A DIME to the arm of the player. i would maybe look into finding a player with a weight already attached

I would think it could as it has @ 4 positions. I'm in the legal field & use it to hold 3 1/2 inch volumes & it's the only one I've found that it this sturdy. I would purchase it again.

I am using it vertically and have not had any issues yet. Discs or the box do not seem to have any mechanical stress by being used vertically

Hi Jill...it will hold up to 50 lbs. Your turntable should fit nicely on it...hope this helps...Billy

It's doubtful since it's thin compared to the other sides and is only being held in by grooves. With how heavy records can get it would be sketchy to try that, especially if you tried to pick it up. I'm going to have to say I wouldn't recommend it.

depends on how it is fastened. I use them for records so they are on the ground. The back (all sides) are fiberboard and can crumble but if you drill a hole and have the right fastener it could work. Mine haven't warped as some folks have reported.

Yes, thats what I use it for. Most of the bays are full with LP's, no problem holding the weight of the albums.

OK the first two shelves at the top are NOT adjustable then the one you are referring to IS adjustable. I am not sure how tall your stereo is but if it is flat enough it will fit. If, it stands up then you might have to take out the whole shelf then just let it stand up at the bottom. We use the the two cupboards to store my husband's and mine records in there.

The width isn't a problem with about two inches to spare but the record is about 1/2" taller. You'll have to tilt the albums slightly. LUV this trunk, I would consider buying it anyway...hope this helps!

It is a veneered particle board, so the support is not the strongest. Fully loaded with CD's or DVD's, you will have some sag. Probably enough to tell that there is a bigger gap at the top when closed and smaller at the bottom.

I just tried it for you. About 1 inch of the CD will be out on the horizontal pockets, if you don't mind that, I think you can store the CDs there, but the CDs won't fit on the vertical pockets. This hanging photo display is designed for 4x6 photos and the 2 columns of pockets in the middle are horizontal and the 2 columns in the sides are vertical). I hope this was helpful :-)

Yes, it could hold vinyls. However it is a little tight and they stick out about an inch or two.

I really think this will work it has two adjustable shelves theirs a couple of things I need to know before I can say for sure. Is the records the only thing going in this and what is the dimensions of the records.
