Late 80's early 90's. I think it was about 1990 when I'd saved all my money and borrowed extra from my mum to buy an Aiwa separates system from Co-Op down London Road. I thought it was the dogs b**locks as it had a turntable that the cartridge would turn over and play the other side of the...
I thought 1200's were silver? 1210's are black. I'm only saying this because I'm a member of a Technics FB group & they're very pedantic and don't want people getting ripped off. (y)
Edit to add, the lid on @ozzygull 's deck would sell for £50
I've figured that as I put a cassette in my tape deck the other day from an old rave tape pack and it sounded like complete shite, it would be worth giving it a go.
To be fair I don't know if it was the cassette or the deck but the 2nd cassette didn't sound quite so bad. I was just glad that I...
There is a simple bit of kit that you can play back cassettes and put it onto MP3 on your laptop!!
I can only begin to imagine what your vinyl collection is like, I'd guess diverse! :smile:
What genre is it mainly? My Jnr wants to buy a record I bought for his dad about 15 years ago, it cost me £20 second hand at the time & as vinyl wasn't 'fashionable' at that time, I felt I'd been robbed. It's now £75 on Discogs, so i've told him to borrow his dads for a while. His dad can't play...
He'd listened to the music that had been drummed into him from an early age in his headphones until early this year. I was stupid enough to say... 'Yeah have a go at the decks, you know 'this' tune 'that' tune, here they are, have a go! I didn't expect it continue & I certainly didn't think I'd...
I know someone that has some laser pirate recordings on cassette along with some radio caroline. I think he's put some onto mp3. I'll speak to him tomorrow and ask. (y)
As a 'non DJ' owner of 1210's, letting a less than 'non dj' yoof use them, I have breathed a sigh of relief that I've yet to hear of someone breaking one! Yoof can continue driving me insane with 90's rave tunes that I used to love but now I'm old & the bassline comes through the ceiling, I find...
How on earth did you manage to break a Technics deck? Asumming it was a 1210 or similar? :unsure:
Yes you can still buy cassette players & some of them have usb ports so you can record it to your pc if it's not likely to be found anywhere else on the net.
