They were awesome...

Who remembers when this picture had more pixels?
jackodn
Add my reel to reel and we're in business.

I also remember when the brushed aluminum look changed to black. And it has never gone back.
MitchBeaucannon
9 band equalizer! Don't you touch my settings!
RabidusUnus
That's still the stereo I want
YouDumbBastard
My older brother had that same setup!
Dellicarweenie

BoozeHound001
Ahh the "Touch this and you're getting double beatings for a month" box
FrozenFoodGuy
My neighbour still has a tower like this and is really proud of it! He's in his 70s and a genuine great guy.
DavidHoag
Sony? Nah. I would take an old Marantz set up though. Marannttzzzzzz.
CoogarKrieger
I still do, yo.
Onceanimrodalwaysanimrod1
Tuner and mixer still work just fine .
dirtytomato
umm what if you still want one?
MamaJeaux
I do
beastiebunny
Still got mine. 1971 Sansui with quadraphonic synthesizer. Oooooooooo!
HighwayStar82
I got a Lafayette LR-221. Sounds gorgeous.
acme64
that still sounds better than your shitty logitech speakers
lenomdeplume
Marantz anyone?
SeizureSalad1694
Marantz and Dennon and Pioneer. And McIntosh if I could afford it
lenomdeplume
Nakamichi cassette deck, TEAC reel to reel and Advent speakers. None of which I could afford. I did have a busted-ass 8 track!
mindcrash
Minus the tape deck, still want
ProxyPlayerHD
My Parents still own a old Stereo set... still use it. as it does the job just perfectly
Imhereforcutestuff
My dad still has some of that.
bawtzki
I'm a Technics guy myself but that does look pretty sweet.
wyatt8740
I like JVC/Panasonic gear, but I used to repair all the old equipment and technics + sony were both good shit
madmatt2024
Panasonic = Technics
wyatt8740
they should have just called it all Matsushita and had done with it
wyatt8740
Yeah, that slipped my mind, because JVC also was Panasonic for a while. I lost track.
forreallyandfortrue
Technics was my go to when doing college radio; reliable! A quarter turn was precisely a quarter turn, my segues were smooth as can be.
tehPhreakmang
90's era Fisher studio standard in my living room.. solid state ftw
Zef66
Wanted? I still have one! Ya, I'm old.
Derfboy
I let mine go a few years ago.... saddest day, ever....

Same here
pomax
at least you're still at the forefront of this technology - the watts have gone up, nothing else has been improvable for basically 30 years
therealeeyore
Yep, just played a Simon and Garfunkel record yesterday.
Shoot117
Parents got a wood panel/black set when I was like 3. Still have the set today
herrlilltroll
Same here
kepler20c
Back in 1983 my dad got his hand mangled in an industrial accident because he was told to use an empty bucket as a step stool, the resulting
kepler20c
lawsuit money bought him two things, a brand new 1985 Ford Escort, and a kick ass sound system that was working fine in 2007 when my mom
kepler20c
forced him to get rid of it during a move. He had every King Crimson vinyl ever made, Talking Heads, etc, all out in the trash.
moosevan
Noooooooo!
TimmyDans
Do you also have a dead hooker in your bed room?
mnorthwood13
Nah he just has drugs
Zef66
Why would you ask me that like it's not normal? You don't?
TimmyDans
Sorry let me rephrase that. Do you have a dead hooker in your bed room also?
Zef66
Well yeah, they are the best kind. You don't have to pay them after you are done with them. And they will be there tomorrow.
SpecialAgentPinkfinger
i too am now feeling old
YourFriendlyNeighborhoodCthulhu
Same here, took it over from my parents, including the sturdy as hell record player and awesome speakers..
RickSanchezfromdimensionJ57Zeta8
My father still has this one but in black.....
HotSpoon
Today is my 40th birthday.
Dipshlappers
I still want that. The sound missing from Bluetooth and wireless drives me crazy
Cheomesh
What sound missing?
IaskTheToughQuestions
Um... what? It's all about the codec. Saying bluetooth is missing "sound" is like saying your paint brush is missing color.
R1ddl3
Eh that's not true though. There's a reason all the high end stuff is still wired.
fnurglbhurg
A2DP transcodes so source is irrelevant. Unless both sender/receiver supports LDAC or aptX you're getting bad quality. 1/2
fnurglbhurg
Of those two, only LDAC sounds somewhat lossless at close ranges, and I've finally got a phone a headphones that both support it.
fnurglbhurg
What I'm trying to say is, if all there is is bristle but you want kolinsky then paintbrush really isn't good.
IaskTheToughQuestions
That's exactly what I am saying. You can't blame cheap options for bad quality if the standards support options that can produce goodquality
IaskTheToughQuestions
the audio quality is dependant on the detail of the coding algorithm and the content of the audio that goes in at the start
tehcron
Looks up APT X
yabadabadoodledoo
Wifi streaming still not enough for ya? Even at 96k +?
therealeeyore
96k is great if it ain't downsampled prior.

Late 80's Sony system? They were shit then and I would say they are shit now but they didn't last that long.
fireeternal
You are not alone
quackattack89
I have one of these????
SmokinDrinkinHikin
Sure I remember! And of course, we kids weren't allowed to touch it!
BOBNOBODY
My dad had one of those and God help us if we touched it. I managed to brake the glass door and the turn table on it......inevitable really!
chupathingy99
You broke the turntable. If he never spoke to you again, I don't blame him.
SlickerThanNick
so... your ex-Dad then? cause after that, didnt he disown you?
BOBNOBODY
No, just got a beating. Well, it was the 70's
