Order a custom turntable cover — in 4 mm acrylic glass

Width and depth of the footprint including the feet and any protruding controls, and the height up to the highest point — that is usually the tonearm counterweight or the tonearm lift, not the platter. Measure at rest with a record on the platter and add 1–2 cm of clearance. The values you enter are always inside dimensions.

A recess in the back panel through which the mains and signal cables run out to the rear — the cover then sits flat even while the equipment stays connected. You give the width, height and the distance from the right-hand inside edge in millimetres. The surcharge is a flat 5,00 € per cover, whatever the size of the cut-out.

A 15 mm frame has to remain all the way round the cut-out. It follows that:

• maximum cut-out width = inside width − 30 mm
• maximum cut-out height = inside height − 15 mm
• distance from the right-hand inside edge at least 15 mm

In the extreme case the back panel is therefore almost completely open and only a narrow frame of about 1,5 cm remains — handy with a thick cable loom, with equipment that gives off heat, or when the cover stands with its back to the wall. The configurator checks the values live and states the maximum possible one if they do not fit.

Yes, the position is freely selectable — it is simply always measured from the right-hand inside edge, because that is the unambiguous reference edge in production. For a cut-out on the left, convert once: distance from the right = inside width − distance from the left − cut-out width.

No. We manufacture removable dust covers that are placed over the equipment – not hinged covers. To put a record on, you lift the cover off. Many vinyl listeners prefer that anyway, because there is then no resonating surface above the tonearm during play.

Inside dimensions from 6 cm to 110 cm in width and height, and up to 55 cm in depth. Of width, depth and height, only one dimension may exceed 50 cm. For larger objects there are the oversize acrylic display case and the tunnel display case – both, however, without a cable cut-out.

Always inside dimensions – that is, the space actually available to your equipment. The outside dimensions come out slightly larger because of the material thickness and the plug-and-screw system:

• outside width = inside width + 14 mm
• outside depth = inside depth + 8 mm
• outside height (without base) = inside height + 7 mm

With a base the usable inside height is reduced: transparent base −4 mm, black base −6 mm.

Three variants, each transparent or black:

• No base – the cover is slipped over the equipment and stands on the furniture. With turntables the most common case.
• Standard base (slip-over version) – it overhangs by 1,6 cm in width and 1,2 cm in depth, with rounded corners.
• Flush base – exactly rectangular (90° cut), finishing flush with the outside dimensions without any overhang.

In everyday language yes – both mean the material PMMA. Plexiglas® is, however, a registered trade mark of Röhm GmbH. We manufacture from high-grade PMMA acrylic glass, the same material from which Plexiglas® semi-finished products are made.

With a turntable the cover comes off for play in any case. With amplifiers, receivers and above all valve equipment the rule is: fit the cover only while the equipment is idle – the waste heat builds up under a closed acrylic cover.

No. The PMMA acrylic glass we use does not yellow and does not become brittle – unlike many old original covers. It does not, however, offer UV protection for the equipment underneath: wooden plinths and printed dials still fade in direct sunlight.

That is the protective film. All acrylic parts are covered on both sides to prevent scratches during production and shipping (reflective parts on one side only). Lift the film off at one corner with your fingernail — acrylic cannot be scratched by a fingernail.
