I was searching for a turntable stand and came across this site:

EDIT - one of the links to the left is a CD / turntable all in one:

Cute!

What kind of a stand are you looking for? isolation base or just a stand?

Not 100% sure.

I have two towers on either side of my speakers that hold all of my albums / laserdiscs that stand about 6' tall. Between the one tower and the wall / corner is an empty space that would be perfect for my turntable. So I'm just looking for something that fits in that area, about 2 1/2 feet wide.

Something glass / steel would be preferred to match everything else. Storage space underneath for albums would be cool but not necessary.

i would probably suggest something other than glass or steel top for a TT for optimal playing. There are many manufacturers out there that offer dedicated products but 90% of them are ridiculously expensive and gimmicky.

Here is a company that makes some decent products but again not cheap.

There is also a lot of product to be had used on audiogon.

Good luck

The type of stand really depends on your TT , isolated or non - isolated ....

I suspended mine to avoid picking up any sympathetic vibrations , low tones sometimes created a feed back cycle .
