I still have pretty much the same setup from the 70's. I have a Pioneer PL12D Turntable, a Technics SL-D2 Turntable, In the 70's I had a Sansui Amp which I later replaced with an Akai AMU04 and replaced yet again with a Pioneer VSX 1017AV amp for Surround. 1st CD Player was a Trio that cost £495 :eek: but I now have a Technics SL-PD867 and a Pioneer DV 696AV for SACD discs. On the cassette front I own a Technics RS-M255X that I used for recording my new albums onto cassette using DBX noise reduction which (to my ears anyway) sounded better than the vinyl. After having moved house recently I just don't have the space for a Vinyl setup and at 68 I no longer have the time or patience to attend to the chores of looking after vinyl :sad: but it's been a very big part of my musical journey. 1st single I ever bought with my pocket money was Look Through Any Window by the Hollies and the first new album I ever bought with my first wage packet was Humble Pie's "As Safe As Yesterday Is" which for me is a classic :thumbsup:
