Question Suggestions for foundational parts of a longer term vinyl setup

It looks great!

Thanks! I've got a satisfying feeling of "Aaaand relax" after a busy few months researching, listening to and gathering this stuff. Putting it all in a custom cabinet was always the cherry on top.

Now for the best bit: just relaxing and listening to it. And hunting out vinyl. And looking properly at new headphones 🎧

New cabinet is here and it's a perfect fit. Next job is to fill up that bottom section and start enjoying the fruits of this madcap three month spree.

It's very good. It's solid Scandinavian Redwood with a dark oak finish.

My wife is (perhaps unusually) a carpenter by trade and she ran a very critical eye over it yesterday and was impressed.

I've just been back to the record shop AGAIN to pick up a couple of extra LPs to start filling out that bottom section.

Incidentally, Lagom Studio have given me a 10% discount code now that I've bought the cabinet, which is a nice touch but I'm hardly going to buy another one any time soon, so if anyone is interested then I'm happy to send it over. Will typically equate to a saving of ~£50+
