Wall mount TT shelf recommendations
Hi all,
Looking to move my turntable to a wall mount shelf.
I have looked at the target shelf offered by music direct and it seems like it would do the job. Any other shelves anyone has used with success? Anyone tried to build their own shelf? My budget is around $200.00 +/-
Thanks

If you scroll down on this Osage Audio Products page, you will find an Audio Elegance wall shelf. A great feature of this wall shelf is that it is designed for the top to come off, thus allowing you to mass load the interior with sand, etc. It's probably over your budget, but worth investigating. |
My Linn was absolutely unusable due to my springy floors, but the problem was totally cured by the Target shelf. I expected some improvement, but not the virtually total isolation I achieved. The dog can jump down off the couch and not a flutter. Another good thing about the target is that you can easily change shelf materials - At least in the case of the Linn, the sound changes substantially with what it sits on. I've found Corian works the best for me, but it's easy and cheap enough to try a piece of glass, wood, or whatever. |
