To the cartoonist who drew this, well done.

Rest in Power Roberta, thank you for your art #robertaflack #killingmesoftly #8track #magnavox #hifi #vintageaudio

My main listening room speaker setup. Two original KLH Model 5s and Two Model 88…of uncertain brand going through a vintage Lafayette quadrophonic adapter. #hifi #analogsound #klh #vintageaudio #speakers #vinylcollector

“America, where are you now
Don't you care about your sons and daughters
Don't you know we need you now
We can't fight alone against the monster” -Steppenwolf , Monster, Suicide, America… it’s sad how relevant this song is 55 years later. #tapetuesday #hifi #soundesign #8tracktape #analogsounds

I’m celebrating Tape Tuesday with one of my Akai GX-365Ds. I love the auto reverse function on this. A highly versatile machine, it can play and record at all 4 speeds. A great estate sale find. #reeltoreelaudio #hifi #akai #vintage #tape #audiotape #1970sdesign

Just watched Rick Beato’s incredible interview with Rick Wakeman … Now playing on the Sanyo Direct Drive Wakemans The Six Wives of Henry VIII #hifi #progrock #Sanyo #directdriveturntable

Now playing on the Miracord 10H … My Morning Jacket… If you’re in Southern New England today you need a jacket. #vinyl #mymorningjacket #miracord #elac #vintagehifi #thorens #turntables #indyrock

Embrace the music that moves and moves you 👍

Damn right. It was the first one, too.

3 more consoles collected in 2020. A wall mounted 1969 Nutone Solid State Stereophonic Music Center, a 1961 Magnavox mini Imperial and a 1963 GE bookshelf tube stereo. I love a good record changer. The tube amp Imperial is the sound superstar here.

"Mr. Byrd made his name with posters for the likes of Jefferson Airplane and Traffic at the Fillmore East … for a concert by the Jimi Hendrix Experience he rendered the guitar wizard’s hair in a field of circles …"

A Better picture of the 2020 basement setup. Optimus receiver dual cassette and EQ, Sony Turntable and CD Changer and a Nakamichi Nakrei Fidela Reel to Reel…pay no attention to the Crowley suitcase lol

In 2020 we acquired the first of our consoles. A 1954 Zenith with Am/ FM Cobramatic record changer. Warm sound but Mono and only safe to play 78s. One side of the bottom is for storage.

These were my first two listening stations back in 2017. The last Sony turntable sold at my local Sears and a former school used Califone that I found at a tag sale. Can you imagine only having 2 record players? #hifi #recordplayer #stereo #flashback
