    In late 70's, my friends Ma owned this. It was centerpiece in her livingroom. A gorgeous touch to her splendid decor. Console had nice, full sonics. Back in those days we listened to FM tuner. Disco was soundtrack of the 70's. And the console had a full, rich sound. Oh, the good old days! 😊

    This thing is the reason why so many people are sound-chasing nowadays. They’re trying to find something that replicates the deep, rich way that music came out of these chests!

    When I was growing up, we had a Philco record player in the front parlor. Oh, the record albums, the 45s, and the 78s I used to play way back when.

    My dad had one of those stereo consoles. Built in turntable and a eight track player built into it.All in one from the late 1970s (from 976-CREOLEMAN).

    Mis padres tuvieron una muy similar, pero al costado izquierdo tenía un televisor retractil, era una Blaupunk coronado del año 1968, un sonido maravilloso

    The golden age of walnut. It’s the reason teenage boys had muscles. Even Bose speakers had walnut sides. I remember buying my first Nakamichi cassette deck and it was all plastic.

    Same splitter box I use for line audio on my phono only units

      @bikdav 29 дней назад

      I forgot about that. The old ceramic cartridges of that vintage did not need a dedicated phono preamp between the cartridge and the main inputs.

    What album is that? I remember hearing that many years ago on the local “beautiful music” radio station.

      Think of James Bond, 1960’s, Sean Connery (opening tune 🎶) “ The Magnificent Seven Theme “ (ending tune 🎵)

      Nope. Look closely at the control unit when he zooms into it. I see "Solid State" at the top of the panel.
