The music system brings back lots of lovely memories
Can your remember the very big radio/cassette players that people used to walk around with
I was one of those people and I’ve still got it and it’s still working
It must be about 43 years old now

That’s nice Shelly, I remember some people used to put empty paint cans in front of the speaker as allegedly it made it sound louder.

I said its still working, I meant the radio is , I should really take it somewhere to get the cassette deck working too

Dont look now, but I have one of these too, but not a single record to play on it...

I’ve got lots of records and LPs in the loft , all in perfect condition
But no record player to play them on

I have both vinyl records and a record deck but never listen to any of them. You tube is so much easier and quicker!

 

[Zephyr]

still have this at the storage room. Last "hifi" i bought before converting to digital. Somewhat attached to it but not using it any more. If someone wants it... local pickup only (nice excuse to come to Greece).

If the wife ever leaves me or I win the lottery

A fully digital system with sacd player as source
I was lucky and got to see Floyd 3 times Earls court,Isle of dogs and Knebworth probably the best band I ever saw
