TwoCan HiFi is offering audio enthusiasts a classic range of solid wood, modular furniture to store 12″ vinyl records, CD’s, DVD’s and audio/visual components.
Built to match Per Madsen’s discontinued RACKIT furniture in his original and the later 19 Series styles
Base units can be added that raise the rack by 1.5″ or 2.5″ off the floor plus a dolly option adds maneuverability and a top panel that completes the rack(s) keeping dust away while adding another surface to store or display your stuff.
The heart of the system and our most popular item, is the classic record rack.
Each rack holds around 100 non-gatefold albums, with mix of double and non-gatefold in poly sleeves 75-80 is more comfortable.
Not only do these racks look great in any home or office, the modular design allows additional units to be stacked on top or at the side of existing racks. If you need to move the rack there is no need to unload the rack; just pick up each rack and move it to the new location.
2 wire dividers help support your precious albums in a less than full rack. I use 1/8″ stainless steel rod that keeps its shape better than the original wire used. For those that have the original dividers and want a consistent appearance I can supply additional dividers at US$9.95/pair (discounts for quantities 5 and up apply). It should be noted that they are not noticeable when the rack is full of LP’s.
Rack Dimensions (nominal):
Width = 18″ (internal width – 16.5″)
height = 14″ (internal height -12.9″ or 12.7″ with top panel fitted)
Depth = 13.75″ (internal depth – 12.45″)
The racks and optional base are constructed from American red oak while the top is red oak veneered MDF (3/4″) with matching edging, all finished as per the Per originals with Danish oil then hand-rubbed to a warm, lustrous glow.
Each record rack is shipped flat with some basic assembly required. Assembly instructions and all hardware needed (correct screws, 2 dividers and table-pins to locate each rack) are supplied along with a 4mm allen (hex) wrench.

Important Safety Information (the small print)
While racks can be stacked up to 6 high (5 on a dolly base), stacking the racks has inherent risk that could lead to serious injury (not to mention damaged LP’s!). This is particularly important in locations where there are young children or the risk of earthquakes is present.
Ensure that the lower racks are loaded first to lower the center of gravity to avoid the ‘tipping filing cabinet’ syndrome.
It is strongly recommended that the racks are anchored to a wall stud or an appropriate wall anchor device (wall anchor info) that secures the stack for towers higher than 3 racks.
Do not allow children (of any age) to climb or play on or around the racks.
