Record player stands
A record player stand is first and foremost a stable surface for your turntable, at the right height, with your records within reach. Our designs pair a clear top with compartments sized for LPs, and sometimes a space for the amplifier.
A low unit to listen from the sofa, a tall one to handle records standing up: every product page gives the width, depth and height so you can check it suits your equipment.
How to choose a record player stand
A turntable is sensitive to vibration and to the level of its surface. The right stand is therefore stable, level and deep enough first of all. Height, storage and style come next.
Check the size of the top
Most home turntables take up around 45 × 35 cm. Measure yours, feet and lid included, and compare with the width and depth of the stand. A turntable that overhangs at the front or back is more exposed to knocks. If the lid opens upwards, keep space clear above the top: avoid putting a shelf right above it.
Choose your playing height
- Around 45 cm: the turntable stays visible from the sofa, and the console fits under a window or a picture. That’s the case with Pigalle, which combines shelves and 4 vertical compartments.
- Around 75 to 90 cm: the top is at hand height, so you can flip the record without bending down. Wagram, 82.5 cm high, combines a top compartment with record storage.
Plan for the amp and cables
If your turntable has no built-in preamp, the amplifier needs to stay close by. An open compartment under the top makes cable routing and ventilation easier. Leave a few centimetres of air above and behind the unit. Designs built around the amp are grouped in our hi-fi furniture range.
Store records under the turntable
Compartments at least 32 cm high and deep take LP sleeves upright. To estimate capacity, allow roughly 1 cm of width for 3 to 4 records, depending on their weight. If your collection already exceeds the space available, add dedicated vinyl record storage.
Keep vibration down
Stand the unit on a level floor and check it doesn’t rock. Avoid putting the speakers on the same top as the turntable: their vibrations can travel up to the stylus. Speaker stands or a separate shelf are better.
Match the finish
Our record player stands come in oak, rustic wood, white, black or concrete grey, depending on the design. For a retro feel, see our vintage record cabinets.
