...I notice they don't do the Kallax in the 5x whatever size. Pretty lame. Now I can't line some up with my 5x5.

Confirmed; sizes are now 2x2 4x1 4x2 4x4.

I'm surprised they don't do sizes in multiples of 3 as going from a 4x2 to a 4x4 is a pretty big jump in sizing.

Tim Simmons

Well, I think I'm gonna do a couple if 4x2s and rearrange my furniture to get them to fit. That should hold me over for a few years.

(Re. AnySlash's collection/photos)

Nice collection! And always a pleasure to see well cared for vinyl.

AndySlash

sleeves for everything, man, when possible.

Tim Simmons

You gotta. Not only for protection but for ease of getting them in and out of a shelf.

Tim Simmons

Do you normally keep records covering your records or is that just for the photo?

AndySlash

yeah, i face a record on each shelf, for two reasons, 1) i have cats that would scratch at the spines (even with the outer sleeves- i learned that the hard way), and 2) i just think it looks nicer that way. i switch out the faced records every couple months for variety. right now all of the records displayed are primarily black in color.

Absolutely. I also replace the inner sleeves with a good quality archival inner sleeves (and keep the originals, especially if printed). This may seem snooty or snobbish but the cost is minimal in terms of preserving LP's.

I'm with you guys, every record gets new inner and outer sleeves. :-bd

Yep. First thing I do after cleaning the vinyl.

Tim Simmons

I only replace printed inners so they don't rip. Otherwise, I don't see much of an improvement of nice inners over paper ones.

I replace all my inner sleeves with the poly lined sleeves. My nicer vinyl and all PJ albums get the Mobile Fidelity inner sleeves

Where do you guys get the inner and outer sleeves?

Here's where I've been getting mine:

Kinda pricey, but very good quality inner and outer sleeves. They send out coupons via email, every so often.
