That looks perfect for a turntable and components will have to be fixed to the wall with wall bolts,

Im gonna go up and have a look at the quality, but it seems cheap enought & all metal.. Shame this range aint in black too.

Says that it must be completed with LATTHET legs or feet - is the wall fixing just to stop it falling over?

Thats the aspect i was worried about, Is the box section thin & maybe crush when you fix wall Bolts.. You can wall fix them without below support tho it shows that..
Apollo used to do something like that years ago & i think Target did too.

Would need to have a look "in the flesh" - I think that you may be right about a thin box section. I have a Target wall shelf and that is pretty hefty.

I was an early Sound Organisation lover. No visible welds on that stuff unlike Target..

I know what you mean. I have a couple of the early SO tables, nicely made - only went to the wall shelf when we had our first child toddling about the place, she managed to knock one of my Ela speakers over on to my LP12 :eek:
No major damage to the speaker, new lid and set up for the LP12 - she was undamaged:)

Only down side with the Early SO was those welded Board mounts & ofc thin boards that were prone to bending..
