Audio Supplies for Recorded Music
Here are a few questions that music lovers and collectors ask us:
You’ll need specially designed carry-out bags tailored for record stores and vinyl retailers. These can vary from plain, or pre-printed paper bags (white and kraft options), to plain, or pre-printed cotton totes—perfect for packaging and presenting LPs in a stylish and durable way. Whether you’re looking for custom printed branded store bags (paper, or cotton totes), or high-quality plain ones, it’s here in this Record Store Carryout Bags category.
For standard 12″ vinyl LPs playing at 33 ⅓ rpm, use jacket sleeves (polyethylene, polypropylene, and Mylar), inner sleeves (paper and poly), jacket box protectors, boxes for storage and divider cards for protection and storage—and mailers for shipping LPs. In addition, Groovy® line provides record care essentials like record cloths and cleaning fluids to keep your LPs in top condition and preserve sound quality.
Here’s a list of a full spectrum of analog formats and what you need to protect them:
• 180 Gram Vinyl Records – you’ll need jacket sleeves for these heavier discs (LP weight upgrades).
• 45 rpm (7″) Records – stock up on poly, mylar, & paper sleeves, paperboard jackets, storage boxes, divider cards, mailers & filler pads, cleaning accessories, and 45 RPM record frames.
• 78 rpm / 10″ Records – similar protective and storage supplies as the 45rpm, but sized and built for these older, larger-format discs.
• 16″ Records (often used for transcription or broadcast) – specialty supplies including polyester mylar sleeves and archival storage boxes designed for their unique size and weight.
You’ll want a complete setup of CD-specific storage, protection and mailing solutions. This includes Tyvek® sleeves, poly sleeves, paper sleeves, cardboard jackets, poly & jewel cases, storage boxes, divider cards, mailers and cleaning kits, frame kits—this is essentially everything you’d need to store, mail or protect a CD collection effectively.
Even though cassettes are a legacy format, there are still high-quality supplies for them: cassette case bags, storage boxes, mailers, replacement cassette shells, J-card inserts and O-cards. If you’re archiving or selling audio cassettes, the right accessories help protect your tapes and presentation.
