Some people like records. Some still very much enjoy tapes. But you discovered CD's and never looked back. Your collection is vast and intrinsic and breaches all of the genres. So maybe it's time to display them properly. Wall mounted CD racks are the best way to do it. Unlike floor base CD holders, these will not take up any of your floor space. And they are attractive while being decorative.

Displaying your CDs in a beautiful cabinet has never been easier, and rather than having to choose the traditional floor rack, you can now install a wall mount rack in your home for all your music. While CDs are a thing of the past, this doesn't mean that nobody has them anymore. Whether your CD collection is for sentimental reasons or you've been collecting for a number of years and it's time to put them on display, here are some designs you can consider.
Criss-cross style
With 4-6 wooden panels positioned horizontally, and a further 4-6 positioned vertically, this criss-cross design combines a traditional shelf look with a very modern and sleek style. It's the perfect option if you are shopping for something which is somewhere in between two extremes. This style gives the user several different compartments and shelves, so it's ideal for those who want to stay organized and put their CDs into different categories. You will often see these made from a raw and unfinished wood, but it is also available in black and white gloss and matte paints.
Corner wall mount
A great way to save space while creating a contemporary look in the room is to install a corner wall mount. This normally has a 'brick' design which allows various compartments for your CDs to be stored. It consists of several shelves going across, and can also be found in different colors. The two tone effect is popular, where half of the piece may match the wall and the other half will match your décor.
Diamond CD rack
A diamond wall rack consisting of nine different compartments for your CDs to stay is very stylish and can be a feature piece in your living room. The compartments are the perfect size for the CDs to slot into. This design is often made from sturdy wood such as pine or oak. It can be attached to the wall using the hooks at the back of the piece.
Cube wall CD rack
This highly contemporary style is normally seen in either white or black glossy paint over sturdy wooden planks. You'll often receive this furniture flat packed and will need to assemble it yourself at home. The cube style can be seen in various styles. For example, the 1-2-3 style is one cube on top of two cubes on top of three cubes. This gives a total of six storage cubs for your CDs, although for larger collections it's possible to get as many as 12-16 cubes.
Curved wall rack
A curved design can get people talking and commenting since it's so unique and unusual. Since we are used to seeing straight lines and edges when looking at shelving and racks, a curved CD wall mount can certainly look out of place at first. However, the curved design comes outwards and around where it curves in again and stops any of your CD collection from falling off the shelves.
