I spent a good part of the last weekend setting up my old Technics turntable with my system so I could hear all the good old music from my LPs. I have about 600 of them and have held on to them for the last 20 years. Over the years I have resisted the urge to replace them with CDs mostly because of the cost. I used to have 2 reel to reels primarily because I could record a lot of music and play them for hours at a time wihout changing tapes or records. This weekend I realized what a fool I have been all these years. LPs have not gotten better with time but the hassles of using them are as bad as ever. Changing disks every 20-25 minutes to hear the other side is annoying, especially when the sound isn't any better than the CDs. Recording engineers back then certainly made the same mistakes with vinyl as they did with digital and it is harder to use.
As long as the Outlaw are at it they should build a new machine with 9.3 sound that uses a light sabre as a remote. It could include a set of metallic Hydrogen speaker wires and a 1000w amy powered by the sun. Of course we the could spend weeks complaining about the cost and that the FM tuner is still not very good.
