Can I use these in reverse as undermount shelf slides for a flat shelf for a lightweight record playing turntable?

It would not be the best option but I do not see why it would not work, it would simply be like a keyboard drawer upside down. However, with that said, you may also look at the home centers or on the Liberty hardware site for an under mount drawer glide. That is what is on an older stereo cabinet that I have that holds my turntable. Good luck...

I am quite certain you could use them "in reverse" for any number of shelf slides. They appear to be strong enough to support far more weight than most any slides I have seen. The dimensions wouldn't be as relevent to that application. The slide mountings for the recessed tray of a key board sit approx 3/8 of an inch from the bottom of the keyboard tray. That would mean you would either have to mount theses slides on the outside edges of your shelf idea or fit them with a spacer about that size and use longer screws.

I don't see why not. The shelves are adjustable and you can slide them anywhere you want to . So upside down should work!

The answer is, "Yes, sort of." I have used these rails to make a pullout shelf attached to a flat shelf. To make it work, I attached the outside rails to a pair of 1x2s. I then attached the 1x2s to a couple of strips of 1x2 plywood, then attached the plywood to the shelf. Basically, I made a simple enclosure for the rails. In the end, it worked perfectly.

Yes, you can, but make sure that you buy the support brackets that hold the shelf up as these are not included with the shelf.

Yes, they can. I have two sets. They're really nice and especially for that price.I just read the other answer. They can be pushed under enough for me.

Just a guess, but I don't think the weight placed on the bottom shelf should matter at all. The heavier weight might make the unit turn slower, but I can't see it causing any harm. Best wishes!

These are not rear mount. They are side mount. If you want undermount slides with rear brackets, search for Blum slides.

Not directly. These are not powered speakers. You need to connect these speakers to an amplfier. Turntable + Amplifier + Speakers = Good times :)

Not likely. The sides, top & bottom are thick, about 1/2". The back, however, is a "slide-in" piece that is only about 1/8" thick. You would have to use brackets or some kind of shelf to mount them. Diane Z.

The other answers are not accurate. Because the slides can be completely removed from the basket (I did so for installation on solid metal shelves) you can simply reverse the slides to achieve your configuration.

I don't see why it wouldn't they are standard turntable mat's. All spindles are the same size.

I am NOT a turntablist, most of my experience involves striving to not do nearly everything that you set out to do. That being said, I'm certain it will mount. It is NOT a high mass headshell. Something like a Sumiko would be much heavier, so I'm not sure how that would impact your application. If you're using a 1200 variant turntable, those are fairly low mass designs, with fairly low mass tonearms. I'd say it probably would swap out for a Technics headshell fairly well. Again, it's NOT a high mass headshell. Use your best judgement.....

You probably could make it work if you are innovative enough. This would include drilling holes in the speakers or "strapping" them to the support bracket in some manner. In addition, the design is engineered for weight bearing from underneath and not above. Just flipping the mounts upside down is not a problem but attaching the speakers would be.

No, I would not advise it. They are made out of pressed wood and after you add your files the extra weight may cause the bottom filing cabinet to become unsteady. That is my advice / opinion, I hope it helps. Sincerely, Linda J Miller

I use mine for LP's and have two vertical and side by side with my turntable on top. I'm almost postive that they come with hardware to stack them and fasten them together. If not they are meant to stack and it wouldn't take much creativity to fasten them together securely.

No, these are side mount slides. There are specific slides that are designed for under drawer mount.

Yes they are Kelly! I had to rearrange all my equipment in my rack just to fit the turntable in! The RCA cables are wired in and the AC cord is short!If you are going to buy a turntable ask if you could use your own RCA cables. DO NOT buy a turntable that the RCA cable's are wired in.
