As long as they weren't IKEA cabinets. I'd heard that Dr D had them in the 
bathtub..!

My wife is a dancer and choreographer (and painter and writer) and she has her 
own favorites..and 95% of the time prefers the LP to the CD even when I 
transfer the disc so she won't wear it out. The house is large enough (barely) 
to contain our fine madnesses.

They do not interfere with "common" territory, like bedrooms, family and living rooms, kitchen. Don't laugh at the last one. Before he was married, Dr. Demento used to have records in his kitchen cabinets.
