Hi,
I hope this hasn't been over discussed before but does anybody have any recommendations for effective but affordable (sub £100) equipment stands?
For 6 bits of kit including a TT and preferably but not essentially 2 sets of 3 shelves rather than 1 big one.
Cheers
Rich.
Hi Rich, I've still got this if you are interested....no drama if not
I'm in Wantage so not a million miles from you in Bristol and I will be popping to ikea at some point in the next few weeks (ffs :( )

Hi Ian,
Cheers for the heads up. What's the height of the bottom shelf? I need 6 shelves but might be able to stack both power amps on the lowest shelf.
Rich.

Thanks for that Chris. It ticks all the boxes but until recently I was using an Ikea one similar to that and fancied a change.
I wish they still did those old Lack three shelf jobbers.

There is another possibility - depending on your location:

It will definitely all fit. I think I prefer 2 sets of 3 shelves though. Thanks anyway.

They look very do-able. Bit far unfortunately. Thanks for the heads up though.

No problem :)
