Vinyl records have made an unexpected comeback in the last decade or so, this has prompted the music industry to provide collectors with a safe place to store them all. LP cases are important to keep your albums safe from damage or loss when not in use, some of this range can fit between 70 and 100 LPs inside. Accidental damages such as scratches can compromise the music etched onto the vinyl itself, so keeping them in pristine condition is crucial to hearing the full scope of the audio design present on the record itself.
What are the advantages of a vinyl record case?
Owning a vinyl storage case is well-advised, this is due to the PVC that vinyl is made from which can cause issues if handled incorrectly. For instance, leaving a record out in direct sunlight could warp the PVC, rendering the record unlistenable and beyond repair. Having your most played records all in one place and easily reachable has proven very popular with collectors and DJs alike.
Many customers will order a protective LP case at the same time as a vinyl player, this way as the owner of the player develops their collection they will always have a place to keep them safe. The materials used to make the cases consist of strong wood and metal, the corners of each case are also rounded off to prevent accidents. Take a moment to browse our collection and determine which sizing suits your personal requirements the most.
How many records can you fit in a vinyl case?
This varies with the case you choose, though an easy way to tell is to look for the number within the product title. This number denotes how many 12 inch LP vinyl you can comfortably fit inside the case itself and gives you a rough idea of the overall size too. Some product pages have useful videos attached for customers to view the case from additional angles and see how it would look in person before placing an order.
We recommend you protect your vinyl whenever possible to minimise disappointment, lock the lid when finished and use the carry handle found on the top to transport. Some cases come with vinyl cloth too which helps you to keep your records free from dust or fingerprints, just wipe down both side A and side B after use. Finally, the cases have additional foam inside for increased protection, you may not have much vinyl right now but consider preparing for the future of your record collection.
