Pangea Audio Vulcan TT Turntable Stand with Vinyl Record Storage (Espresso)

The threads are 25. I would like to share what I learn as I go along. I intend to replace the leveling pins with something that I can move my wood floors with more ease. There are M8 x 1 threads on this part. 25*BTW, the product quality is great, and I wouldn't replace the pins if I had carpet in my house. If only there was an option of including the 10" rods OR the 7" rods, instead of having to purchase them separately, I wouldn't have any use for the left overs. This was updated on 9/16/2018 to use these Adjustable Leveling Feet instead of pins. *br / *br.

I am very happy with my purchase of this stand! The pieces are very easy to assemble without tools, I was able to finish it all in Instructions are confusing since there are only pictures with no words, but it's easy to figure out (I did it on my own). It is a sturdy stand once it has been assembled. I was surprised at how sturdy the metal parts seem, and how thick the MDF shelves felt (much thicker than I expected). My observation was that both the metal and the wood shelves are well-finished, without any defects I could detect. It is really impressive how great the quality is for the price (I got the black model for a little over I have a large DAC, a stereo amp, and about 50 records on the stand, and it stays in place without wobbling. There is an easy way to adjust the feet so it's level. There are some who do not like the spikes, but there are spikes for a reason, to help lessen the amount of vibration that travels up the stand (which would cause your record player to I personally like the spikes, but everything has standard metric screw sizes, so you can easily find some more feet to swap out if you want to. It doesn't look bad at all, just plain and functional. I like the simplicity of it, but I think it looks a bit plain. In addition, the package was extremely well packed. There was a lot of cardboard, but I'm sure that prevented damage from occurring It is obvious that Pangea spent a lot of time and effort designing this product and its packaging, which shows in the results. Record stands recently became very affordable, and this record stand is an excellent choice for those who need to buy one.

Even though they include diagrams to show what order things should go in, study them closely due to the inconvenience of having to take it apart to fix a mistake. Install the thickest shelf on top. Assembly must take place from the top down. The one at the top would make sense to me since 100 LPs are heavier than anything that would fit through the top, but the one at the bottom has an edge at the back to prevent albums from sliding out and it makes sense to have the thickest shelf at the top If you want the best overall structural integrity, tighten up all bolts and posts as much as possible. As a result, if you order an extra shelf like I did, you will need to account for it in the order. But the installation is pretty much the same for all tiers. While I think this product deserves five stars for what it does, I thought the price was as high as it needed to be and, even though they added some written instructions to the diagram, it could still be easier to follow. This product is high quality, and although others reported a shelf or two to be damaged in transit, that wasn't the manufacturer's fault, and my product arrived so perfect (the packing was just right). I added an additional $60 to the base unit for an additional shelf, which would have increased its value to $140. Thus, when it comes down to it, it cost $200 for a unit with four shelves however, if you only need three shelves, you can buy the base unit instead. After thinking about it, I suspect it was probably the extra shelf that was excessively priced. I keep a lot of my music on the bottom shelf, including amps. I don't mind the spiky feet because their purpose is to minimize the contact between the stand and the ground, which isolates the unit from the vibrations of the ground. As I hopped around next to the table, the record did not skip, so it worked just fine. For those who have hard floors or do not wish to risk damaging their carpet, you can use the included saucers (although some say they are tricky to place unless the entire unit is down first) or purchase different feet - although I doubt they will slide around that much. Alternatively, you can leave them off altogether from the bottom and have the ends of the short posts under the shelf forms the feet (although this would be more practical for carpet than hard floors since the edges of the posts can dig into the carpet when everything on the shelf is heavier). There should have been an alternate set of threaded bolts with rounded tips instead of spikes that would have worked the same as the spiked feet, but would not have pierced Due to the fact that you have to lift the unit into the air before you can move it, it is quite cumbersome. Make sure you figure out where you want to put it before you set up all your gear! Please note, however, that here is one word of warning It is possible that near the bottom edge of the shelf, the vinyl wrap (the carbon fiber looks awesome in person, by the way) can be sharp. It was a hard lesson for me to learn when turning it over when transporting it from my living room to the office where it is now residing and I sliced my thumb on the edge of the top shelf. My band-aid quickly took care of that hiccup, but I just wanted to warn others to hand the unit with great care (both to the shelf and to Please note- *br* It was a great purchase for me, and I'm extremely satisfied. It's hard to find a quality (and good looking) rack specifically for turntables at this price point, and the other racks I looked at before purchasing this were over $200 so even with adding the extra shelf, I would rate it as a good value. A major reason I chose this shelf as opposed to any other is that the space between the thinner shelves is larger than many other made-to-measure shelves I am for Plays a turntable Stands have four legs, which are typical for setups On the receiver/amplifier tier, there is a clearance of 6". Sony's receiver is 6 inches tall, so 7 inches was plenty, but I left a bit extra room to breathe, since the receiver is 6 inches high.

In just a couple of days, I received the Pangea Audio Vulcan TT Turntable Stand with Vinyl Record Storage (Rosenut) at my home. I was pleased with how well everything was packaged. There was no damage to anything. It took me about 10 minutes to develop the stand after it was opened, I read the instructions, removed the contents and placed everything out in order. It was probably the easiest thing I have ever assembled. It is not necessary to use tools for this. This stand appears to be very nice, but as detailed in other reviews, its feet are kind of strange. Pointed and sharp ends are present on both ends of the sticks. Those were the most impractical and stupid things I've ever seen. They were completely removed from me. Despite the lack of them, the Stand still looks and works great. There needs to be an end to "spike feet" at this company. Except for that one flaw in design, this has been a great little stand for my Crosley audio system. I can easily fit all my vinyl records in it. features a second shelf that can hold a variety of audio components, if necessary. Another thing I should mention is that the price was reasonable given.

An additional brief paragraph or a few bullets would have greatly enhanced the quality of this work, earning it In general, you just screw the bars together with a few headless screws. We don't have any tools, so to speak I found it to be tricky, but not difficult. It is important to a) take the time to study the logic behind the assembly before starting, and b) follow the assembly instructions exactly It is important to tighten the bars (and hand-tighten the screws) each step of the way in order to get the ultimate It is going to take some brains to do the former Last but not least, they have a little muscle. In the case of unstable stands, reviewers are likely to get more benefit from unloading and turning the stand over again. I gripped and tightened those bars with all my might. My recommendation for this stand would be highly influenced by its caster design.
