Pangea Audio Vulcan TT Turntable Stand with Vinyl Record Storage - Black

Not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Wood shelves are thick enough and smoothly finished. All metal parts are coated uniformly and are accurately tapped for bolts. Easy to assemble with rudimentary instructions. Solid when assembled, suits my needs.

Love the build quality. This goes together quite easily - it’s not really that complicated to assemble you just need to follow the directions closely.It’s rock solid though, looks great and is perfect for a small scale vinyl collection. It fits many standard size receivers, measuring about 7.5” clearance ont he second shelf leaving enough breathing room / ventilation for a 6.5” high receiver.It’s going to hold about 100 albums give or take depending on if they are a collection or single,etc.The only caution here is the pointed tips on the feet although they send steel discs those are kind of useless if you need to move the table with things on it - highly suggest buying some feet sliders or you will damage your floor if they come off the steel discs. I hacked some together with glue and bottle caps with felt on the bottom but will probably purchase something a little more clean.Over all highly recommended.

I purchased this for the audio gear I have in my study. I used the bottom for a 7" reel to reel player, the middle for a receiver, and the top for my turntable. The unit is very sturdy and there was plenty of room for my gear. The adjustable feet were a bit difficult to balance out but I got it in then end. It is a great looking and very functional little stand. Assembly tool about 45 minutes or so and was quite easy.

I found this easy to assemble, but I'm the kind of person that loves to attempt to put together IKEA furniture without looking at the instructions. They do include diagrams to indicate what order things go but study them closely since having to take it apart to fix a mistake could be a chore. Assemble from the top down with the thickest shelf on top. I initially thought this one would be at the bottom since 100 LP's weigh more than anything else you would put on any of the higher shelves but the bottom shelf is the one that has the lip at the back to prevent albums from sliding out the rear and I suppose having the top shelf be the thickest makes sense for stability. Tighten every bolt and post as much as you can to get the best overall structural integrity. If you purchased an extra shelf like I did, you'll have to account for that in the order but the installation is the same for each tier, pretty much.This product honestly deserves five stars for what it does but I felt the price was a tad high and, as others have mentioned, the diagram could have been easier to follow if they added some written instructions. Don't get me wrong, it's high quality and although others reported a shelf or two damaged in transit, that's hardly the manufacturer's fault and mine came pristine (the packaging was ample). But the base unit, at $140, could have included one more shelf, which I purchased for an additional $60. So in the end, it cost $200 for a unit with four shelves but if you only need three, the base unit will do. Now that I think about it, it's probably the extra shelf that was overpriced...Still, once my collection of records surpasses the capacity of the single bottom shelf, I plan on purchasing an extra one of them which will add some height to the tower as well as give me more room for albums. As it stands now, top has my turntable, second shelf has audio receiver, third shelf has accessories and pre-amp and the bottom shelf, of course, has my collection.I don't mind the spiky feet as their purpose is to minimize the contact between the stand and the ground, which isolates the unit from ground vibrations. I jumped around next to the table and the record didn't skip, so it works like a treat. And if you have hard floors or don't want to risk damaging your carpet, you can always use the included saucers (although word on the street is they're a pain to place unless you place the full unit down first and slip them under each corner, and I don't imagine they slide around very well) or purchase different feet - or leave them off entirely from the bottom and have the ends of the short posts under the bottom shelf be the feet (although this would be better for carpet than hard floor since the edges od the posts could dig in under the weight of everything on the shelves). I actually wish they had included an alternate set of threaded bolts with rounded tips instead of spikes that would function effectively the same as the spiked feet but not pierce the carpet. The main downside being that you have to lift the unit up into the air before being able to move it - so definitely figure out where you want it before setting all of your gear on it!One word of warning, however - the vinyl wrap (the carbon fiber looks awesome in person, by the way) can be sharp near the bottom edge of each shelf. I found this out the hard way when transporting it from my living room to the office where it now resides and sliced my thumb on the edge of the top shelf when turning it over. A band-aid solved that hiccup but I just thought I'd warn others as the unit should be handed with the utmost care (both for the sake of the shelf and your skin).All-in-all, I'm super satisfied with this purchase. You'd be hard pressed to find a quality (and good looking) rack made specifically for turntables at this price and the others I was looking at before pulling the trigger on this were well over $200 so even with purchasing the extra shelf, I think it was a good deal. One of the main reasons I went with this instead of any others is that the space between the thinner shelves is greater than many other 'made-for-turntable-setups' stands, which tend to have 4-6" of clearance on the receiver/amplifier tier. I'm using a Sony receiver that is 6" high so 7" of space was perfect, leaving a bit extra to allow it to breathe.

The media could not be loaded.  I cannot say enough for how good looking this hi-fi furniture is. The rack is high for functionality. I added the LP Storage add-on to bring the turntable up to a proper working height. The extra storage for albums is terrific. I like the fact that the LP shelves have a stopper at the back which puts all the LPs at the same distance back.I was disappointed that the thing was 1/4" too narrow for my Pioneer. I could have put it on top like others have done - but, that just wasn't going to cut it. I engineered a solution to rotate the front, upper posts for the receiver shelf enough to get the width I needed. Worked Great! The change is unnoticeable and the Pioneer SX-737 slips in with about an eighth inch on each side. I left the rear posts unaltered and this ends up being a bonus as the receiver tucks itself nicely up against them and keeps everything sitting square with the world. Fabulous.Attached are the parts I used (along with a step-drill to open up the holes to the outside of the posts) along with the finished product.
