piky0032 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) Found our loungeroom was getting really cluttered so ive done a swap with some new Kallax shelves in lieu of the old Expedits......Using the white shelves and dropping the heigh has just made the room feel heaps more open Before After Edited October 11, 2018 by piky0032 Rip, Han Solo, backpackoat and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I also moved a few months ago, and decided that since my two 2x2 Expedits were basically full, it was time for an upgrade. I'm really happy with the new 4x4 Kallax and all of the room I have for expansion! Still not too crazy about having to have my turntable and receiver separate from the shelf, but idk if it would look right having them sitting on top of the Kallax since it's so tall. It would make hooking the speakers up way easier, though... what do y'all think? piky0032 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep they are the Door inserts that Ikea sell as add ons for the Kallax series. They are a bit of a pain to install but once they are in they look great. Speakers are Bose 301s - I got them at a rediculous price and prefered them to the Wharfedales that i was running. I also have it all connected through the roof and into the outdoor entertainment area to Bose Outdoors as well.....they pump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But value for money, if i was paying rrp id probably take the Wharfedales, i just happened to get the Bose 301s dirt cheap. docbronze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a 2x2 on top of a 2x4 stacked vertically be asking for trouble? I've got two 4x4s with a 2x4 stacked on top horizontally with no issues, if that's any help. Pro tip: securing the dowels with wood glue when assembling makes them a bit more durable, but obviously makes them un-tear-down-able during a move... My setup also allows for some box set space on the top, as there are some surfaces to lean against and that don't need the strict headroom that the records in the Kallax need to adhere to Edit: sorry, just realised how insanely old this post was - not trying to revive a dead thread!

bluethumb Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I don't think I've posted here before but my modest setup is below. I built the record cabinet about 3 years ago when I had ~400 records but I'm already running out of room. Also, I live in a tiny apartment so I don't have any other options for speaker placement - I know they're too tucked into the wall. piky0032 and Sprague Dawley 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
