So a friend called me the other day and said, "Hey my work as a bunch of pallets they want gone....." Ended up being about 80 pallets total. So I've been kicking around buying a VTI audio rack and giving my son the old one I bought at Best Buy. Then it hit me.... make one. So this is what I ended up doing.....

Finally done and set up:

Swapped to a more modern amp to push the LS90's.

    I like it!
    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    That's funny good.
    Did you take all 80? If so, you have a long.....LONG road ahead of you.

    Looks very rustic pretty cool if you get bigger heavier amps you could move it all at once with a forklift, hey is that a jar of Nutella next to the turntable? Yummy

    Thanks! I'm very pleased with the results. That is my 16 year old sons record collection. Mine was about like that when I was his age. Of course his twin has no interest in vinyl at all. I got all 80. He called me this week and said there will be more. I built a small movable work table and am working on a fire pit Adirondack type love seat to sit by the fire with the gf. Next project is a CD cabinet. That is a pretty sweet system I set up for him for his first. Mine was a Zeneth all in one. Remember those from the 70's? Next I had a Fisher. That boy is starting out with Polk LS 90's Onkyo amp, NAD pre and a Techniques Turntable. I think I have less then $300 in the whole system. Oh yea I'm fairly certain he stole my copy of Endless Summer. That boy loves the Beach Boy's, Buddy Holly, and Johny Cash.
