I'm crying....I miss my wittle Sony baby PS-X800 tt...please remove the pics, can't stand it...too painful...that biotracer arm was so ingenious its ridiculous...that table was MUCH heavier than it looked...
The best line in this whole thread was the wish list for pics of past systems...I'd love a picture of my first hi-fi, a portable stereo phono w/ removable speakers, green bullet-shaped Astatic cartridge (remember when RS catalogs had dozens of carts?...heck, remember when RS printed CATALOGS?), the cool tan/white 2-tone cloth cover, brass hardware & corners, loved it...a big book case w/ an EML 101 synthesizer then later an ARP, flanked by Dyna A50s in the corners...Even in a bedroom (largish) downstairs in a sunset disctrict Jr5, the A50s were so power hungry every light in the entire house would dim w/ each down beat when it was cranked (even the meter ligths dimmed in the Phase Linear 400 power amp by Bob Carver)...now that wais FUN! I still can't believe my parents let me get away w/ it...
