Does anyone have any examples of solutions that are covered? these all seem to be open which would not please my wife. I could put them in another room, but then it kind of defeats the purpose. I guess this is the problem with having the system in the living room. Some sort of cabinent with doors. Currently I only have about 60 albums, but I just started buying them the past few months. That being said, I would like to explore solutions with doors or drawers that keep them out of sight.
Thanks.

My wife approves of this in our living room. A cedar chest from the thrift store. Holds 3 rows of LPs perfectly. IMG_0183.JPGIMG_0184.JPG

I had never considered the cedar chest solution. I have 3 in my home, but not enough vinyl to bother with. I know a lot of antique stores near me sell chests in nice shape for under $100. In a room where wood tones work, an old Lane chest would work great. If no wood tones, a good coat of room-matched paint would work wonders.

Cedar may absorb a little moisture. That may work.

There are quite a few solutions to your problem but a lot will depend on how much you want to spend and now many records you have+intend to buy. The cedar chest solution posted above is indeed pretty good and one I never thought of. But that's likely due to owning over 1000 records and hence it's not a solution for me. With 60 records and no plans to buy grown your collection exponentially the cedar chest may work assuming there's a high WAF. But for larger collections the Atocha designs are really nice. They may not match everyone decor but you could get something built locally by a carpenter that looks different but does the same job: https://www.atochadesign.com/pages/new-custom-design I bet they'd even customise it for you looks wise. They are not cheap but they do have configurations that are smaller e.g. 4 drawers. A local carpenter (who built my open rack) was hired by a gentleman who had a dog with a peculiar curiosity towards his records. So he built him this wall unit. (click on lower left picture with lps) http://www.woodtoronto.com/index.php?page=1 If I had the space I'd actually move towards a covered storage system as well, perhaps like the Atocha design. I don't mind records being on display but I prefer a cleaner look at this point in my life especially since my living area is also my listening area. |

My collection has now grown to over 100 titles, so it would appear you are right and a cedar hope chest would not be a solution. I have a built in bookshelf in the listening room that I will probably have a local craftsman reconfigure for me. The Atocha designs look great, but I would think I could do something locally and support a local artisan while still getting a terrific solution. I would rather not look at the spines of records although my wife has been more understanding than most, I suspect.
