Hi folks, this is my portable rig, you must think I'm kidding, but no, I'm not.
I know this simple but effective portable rig sounds much better than a lot of $1000 usd rigs out there (no offense guys), but I really like it and it's very light and portable, as you can see it's about the size of an old tape.
Music sounds with a great detail and the best is that the songs are not compressed!! I usually carry everyday no more than 2 tapes and yes, I spent like 2 hours recording a 90 min mix tape with my old Onkyo tape deck.
Old school? yeah, but I can't afford right now a DAP, AMP and high-end headphones...I bought a used ipod on ebay a couple of months ago but I got screwed and sent it back.
I'm looking forward to save and upgrade my headphones for Christmas, but it hurts to know that the new Grado's SR60 are more than 70 usd, I'll see if a can buy a used pair for less, although not sure if ebay is the best place to get a used pair or here, since I have seen that they're sold for no less than 50 usd.
Please indulge me for not posting a great rig and for the quality of the pictures, but I think my rig deserves to share some space in this thread with all those amazing rigs that you guys have.
