Heck ya! I still regularly listen to cassette

 
hooked up the 'ol cassette deck, dug up many of my tapes... and .... broken!
 
out of all the gear i've ever owned (including my original NES game system, turntables, etc.) none have faltered - until now. guess it wasn't meant to be. my tapes are stuck inside and the decks won't open or play. might have to look for my old walkman to satiate my nostalgia.

Yo,
 
I spy a Genesis Model 2. I also have a NES but it's NIB. I use my Retron3 to play NES/SNES/Genesis games, all on one system. Also the NES is quite durable and if the pins for the reader ever break, you can buy a replacement for around $10.

Nothing's really changed but I did get a new (to me) Klipsch subwoofer a while ago, plus I'm bored so here ya go...
 
 
@Bee inthe Attic, I think that's one of the few cassette setups I've seen in this thread. Good thing you can find decent cassette players second-hand.

Well then, I guess it's kind of ironic that I have this Teac C-3X deck. I tested out one of my dad's old cassettes with it a while back and it seems to work ok, not that I ever actually use it for anything other than the fact that I think it looks cool.

 
(This is an old picture.)

Right, well that's what I'm saying. If you wanted another cassette player and you can't get yours to work, they're easy to find second-hand and very cheap.

That it does!

probably worn out belt. them sitting around for while in consent changes in humidity and temperature can cause the belts to wear down. doesn't take much either with most decks. just takes time.

Been a long time since I posted my rig here.
Yesterday I finished three DIY monitor stands. (note that both screens and speakers are 'monitors' in this case).
I then decided to clean everything up and make some pictures. The quality is so-so, even though I used a decent camera. I'm just oblivious when it comes to photography.

Wow pretty epic! Always wanted a 3 screen setup but I like mine pretty good too. I like my setup to have a very small footprint and be sleek. I'll post pics as soon as I get around to cleaning up a little. Thanks for sharing.

My dad has a fairly big cassette collection (IMO). I'll have to post pics of it along with my deck, It came with my other stereo gear and that turnbed out to be decent after I became an audiophile and researched it, so maybe my cassette deck is actually decent, but I didn't think so (just an assumption price-wise, sounds fine to me).
Too bad I'm out of town at the moment..hopefully I'll remember

 

[Lux Nocte]

  I can't even conceive the idea of having one of these setups for another fifteen years, nonetheless, these are awesome.

Ikea should sponsor head-fi, actually.  Every other post seems to feature an ikea chair or furniture.
