Your personal, in home stereo system
Moderators: Mr Awesomer, JesseMiner, CafeSavoy
If the old stuff has been maintained, I think it sounds just as good as newer ones. I haven't had a chance to listen to any tube stuff yet though. I prefer to buy old because it works just as well but for a fraction of the cost. Sometimes I'll even just pick up some cheap ones at a garage sale for $10, clean it up and sell it again online for $40.

One of the captions stated that one of these weighed 75 pounds!

Will big bands ever come back?
FWIW, I've been really happy with my Audioengine speakers: http://audioengineusa.com/

Behind the stereo is my trumpet wall of fame. Louis is top and center flanked by Dizzy, Roy & Clark (l), and Maynard (r). Bottom row is Chuck and Clark.
The other walls of the room are also adorned with album covers of jazz musicians. I've joked that I have more black men in my basement than anyone else in (/insert your favorite local vanilla white suburb here/).

It looks like you have two identical CD players. Cool.

i've stared at this image for a good five minutes now, and i still don't know what's going on between the chair and his butt.Eyeball wrote:A man and his receivers from 1978.

is he levitating? is that a tiny sidetable, standing underneath the chair? also, does that chair have only one arm rest?
bizarre.
