Ikea Kallax shelves have been used for a long time for record storage. The second thing I did in setting up my stereo in my new home was to get some Kallaxes for the records. My mate in Melbs bought coloured ones for his long ago in the 90s.
Good idea, Kallaxeable component sizes! Just use cable tidies at the rear of components and down the back edges of shelves.
I’m not sure if Ikea is in NZ, maybe Auckland?
