Where do you keep your headshells?

[wondergrape]

I'm starting to amass a good collection of cartridges, and want to have them mounted for easy switching. Question is - where/how to store the headshells when not in use?

Lots of great threads with pictures and ideas. Do a search for headshell storage.

Here one to start with...

Use a travel soap container... Dirt cheap.

Both my turntables have slots for extra headshells. I keep my two spares on those, that way I can also remember which headshell is aligned for which turntable.

Memory is after all, the second thing to go...

Might want to check AKs Barter Town, thedelihaus made some very nice headshell boxes, I posted photos of the two he made for me.

I bought one of these from 2juki on eBay.
It was just a little pricey but free shipping and it arrived very quickly. Foam lined with cut-outs for headshells and felt lined lid and base bottom.
I like it a lot.


No affiliation w/2juki either.

I uploaded pics but they're not attached for some reason....

DIY or ready made showcase type - made by Audio Technica, room for six or eight? :scratch2:

Plano boxes or that blue Shure dj cart case.

My $8 solution. Sorry for the poor quality pics.

Box was $5 at a hobby store. Foam was $3 at the same hobby store.

My box was $4 but a fair amount of time.

I have a little wooden box I just dump them in with the stylus guards on of course.
