Extension shelf for Display LUNA
The extension shelf for Display LUNA adds an extra tier to the modular record display. It allows the record storage to grow with the collection and makes it easier to set the furniture at a useful browsing height. For collectors who want more vinyl storage without replacing the entire unit, it is a practical addition.
The shelf is made from solid oak or solid walnut and is combined with black-lacquered steel tubes. It can be fitted during the initial assembly or added later. One extension shelf creates a second tier; two extension shelves allow Display LUNA to be built up to a maximum of three tiers. To maintain stability and load capacity, no more than two shelves should be used per unit.
This accessory is designed exclusively for Display LUNA. It adds useful LP storage while keeping records visible, easy to browse and neatly organized within an open display for records.
Everything thoughtfully considered
What does the Display LUNA extension shelf add?
It adds one complete storage tier to an existing Display LUNA. This increases LP storage and raises the browsing level without replacing the original furniture.
How many records fit on one extension shelf?
The stated capacity is approximately 120 records. Sleeve thickness and any space reserved for speakers or easier browsing can reduce the practical total.
Is the extension shelf compatible with other record cabinets?
No. It is designed exclusively for Display LUNA and uses the dimensions and supports of that system. It should not be installed on unrelated LP furniture.
How many extension shelves can be added?
A maximum of two extension shelves may be used on one Display LUNA, creating up to three tiers in total. The two-shelf limit is intended to maintain stability and load capacity.
Can the shelf be added after the original LUNA has been assembled?
Yes. It can be fitted during the first assembly or added later as the collection grows. Follow the supplied instructions and unload the relevant parts of the unit before rebuilding it.
What are the dimensions and materials?
The shelf is approximately 974 mm wide and 487 mm deep. It is available in solid oak or solid walnut and is combined with black-lacquered steel tubes.
Are tools and assembly instructions included?
Yes. Detailed instructions and the required tools are included. The product is supplied flat-packed, so it must be assembled and integrated into the Display LUNA structure.
What are the delivery, return and warranty conditions?
The extension shelf is listed for immediate delivery with free delivery within the EU. A 14-day cancellation period applies after receipt, and the product carries a two-year warranty.
How do I choose the right record cabinet for the size of my collection?
Count your LPs, then choose a record cabinet with enough capacity for the records you own now and some unused space for future purchases. Measure the available width, height and depth, including room for doors, drawers, cables and ventilation. Also decide whether the cabinet must support a turntable, amplifier or television; the AllVinyl collection can be filtered by capacity, dimensions and space for audio equipment.
How many LPs fit in a record cabinet, and why can the stated capacity vary?
Capacity figures are approximate because gatefold albums, box sets, outer sleeves and dividers occupy more space than standard single sleeves. A useful estimate is around 10–12 conventionally sleeved LPs per 3 cm, but records should not be packed so tightly that they are difficult to remove. AllVinyl models range from around 60 LPs per Kiyo compartment to 260 in the listed MOEBE configuration, 350 in the LOIA Digger and more than 400 in Plyphonic Model A.
How much extra record storage should I allow for a growing vinyl collection?
A sensible planning margin is approximately 20–30% above your current collection. Someone with 200 LPs should therefore consider record storage for roughly 240–260 records rather than buying a cabinet that is full on arrival. For collections that grow unpredictably, modular systems such as Kiyo and MOEBE can be rearranged or expanded instead of being replaced.
Can I place my turntable on top of the record cabinet?
Yes, provided the top is sufficiently large, level, rigid and rated for the weight of the turntable. Compare the turntable footprint with the usable surface and leave room for the dust cover, power lead and audio cables. Turntable manufacturer Pro-Ject advises placing a turntable on a level surface; AllVinyl models explicitly intended for turntable use include GRAM, PLAY, Curtis and LOIA Le Meuble Digger.
Which record cabinets also have space for an amplifier and other audio equipment?
Look for compartments with sufficient internal width, depth, height and load capacity—not merely a shelf that looks large enough in a photograph. GRAM has a middle shelf intended for an amplifier, LOIA Le Meuble Digger has open equipment shelves rated up to 14 kg each, and KRON has a central area with cable openings for an amplifier or streamer. MOEBE provides adjustable open shelving, while the Plyphonic models integrate amplification and other audio equipment into the furniture itself.
Do the cabinets include cable management and sufficient ventilation for audio equipment?
This differs by model. LOIA Le Meuble Digger has an open rear and adjustable cable grommets, MOEBE has open sides and backs, and KRON includes cable openings in its central equipment section. LOTV Vinyl Slide also has cable openings, but equipment placed behind closed doors must still have the clearance required by its manufacturer. Denon, for example, recommends around 15 cm above and 5 cm at either side of its AV receivers and warns against blocking their upper vents.
What is the difference between open record storage, closed cabinets and pull-out record drawers?
Open vinyl storage makes the collection easy to see and browse and generally provides better airflow around audio equipment, although records remain more exposed to dust and light. Closed cabinets create a quieter visual arrangement and reduce everyday dust exposure, but access and equipment ventilation require more attention. Front-browsing compartments and pull-out storage make it easier to flip through covers; GRAM and Curtis are designed around browsing access, while LOTV Vinyl Slide combines vertical LP storage with sliding-door compartments.
How should record cabinets store LPs vertically or horizontally, and which record cabinets do it properly?
LPs should be stored vertically, on edge, with enough lateral support to prevent them from leaning. Long-term horizontal stacks place unnecessary weight on the lower records and should not be the main storage method. Both the Canadian Conservation Institute and NEDCC recommend vertical storage for disc media. AllVinyl designs that explicitly provide supported vertical or angled storage include Curtis, the Sinfonic Audio cabinet, Kiyo’s 33 × 33 × 33 cm compartments, LOTV Vinyl Slide and the adjustable MOEBE system.
Are the record cabinets modular, expandable or available in custom dimensions and finishes?
Some are. Kiyo can be reconfigured and extended with additional modules, while MOEBE can grow in both width and height. Display LUNA also uses a modular construction. For made-to-order LP furniture, Sinfonic Audio offers a selectable number of compartments and alternative woods, Curtis can be adapted through custom work, and Plyphonic models are produced to order in selected finishes.
Do the cabinets arrive assembled, and what should I check before delivery?
Delivery and assembly depend on the maker. Kiyo arrives flat-packed and uses a tool-free magnetic connection system; MOEBE requires self-assembly; Display LUNA includes instructions and the necessary tools. Pastform models such as PLAY, LOTV, KRON and GRAM arrive assembled and include indoor delivery in the listed countries, while LOIA Le Meuble Digger is delivered ready-made on a pallet. Before ordering, measure doorways, corridors, stairs, lifts and tight corners, and check whether delivery is to the front door, inside the home or on a pallet.
