Neil Young went on a crusade about the evils of digital music and how it's destroying the quality of music.
Needs an upgrade:I was rocking one of these in the 70's. I'd go down the road on my skateboard with it cranked all the way up blaring The Scorpions. It sounded like crap and went through 4 D cell batteries in a day. Good times.
It was a good idea, too bad it didn't pan out though.Neil Young went on a crusade about the evils of digital music and how it's destroying the quality of music.
Neil Young’s Lonely Quest to Save Music (Published 2019)
He says low-quality streaming is hurting our songs and our brains. Is he right?www.nytimes.com
You won't get any argument from this American. You have to remember that we're the ones suffering the most from the pathetic response exhibited by the United States. It's been despicable and many of us are ashamed and embarrassed by the obvious incompetence with regards to our response. We should have led the world as we have in the past and used all of our resources early on to stop the spread. Instead... Well I don't need to tell anyone what they've already watched unfold before their own eyes.
Only $800, plus $50/day in batteries, and you get dual cassette players?
Mid South here
PLUS 2 shortwave bands to listen to broadcasts from Zimbabwe, or somewhere else exotic.

My dad had a shortwave receiver. I would listen to the odd warbling sounds in the higher frequencies, and imagine spaceships.After getting cocky, my province is seeing an uptick in cases. It's still well under control, but with a bunch of rich guys trying to bring in a bunch of other rich guys from all around the globe to play hockey, there is reason for concern imo.
@raratt we had a home stereo in the 70's [with a built in bar] that also had short wave. In those pre-internet days it was kind of cool to spin the dial some cold nights when signals came from around the globe. Usually it was in a language I didn't understand, but that just made it more exotic and interesting
lol SANYO... is that a knockoff Sony?I was rocking one of these in the 70's. I'd go down the road on my skateboard with it cranked all the way up blaring The Scorpions. It sounded like crap and went through 4 D cell batteries in a day. Good times.
I refuse to feel this old, so therefore you must be a mere child. ;-P
Super Jumbo Hyper Sound!!!! I'd love to hear the commercial for this thing.
That's the nicest thing anyone has said to me today.
They must not sell much in Canada, I've never heard of them or seen any of their products in stores.
They got bought by Panasonic, most of their divisions were sold off, etc... They basically only have televisions and players anymore. They're available in the United States and I think the brand name is still popular in India.
Enough backchat, back to daycare with you. You shouldn't be on a site like this anyway.
