The giant wooden spoon and fork really bring it all together.

Me listening to Beauty and the Beat with Koss headphones while sitting on big ole shag carpet. The giant wooden fork and spoon is just icing on the cake.

Yup. That’s pretty much what me and my place looked like in 1982.

Ayyy I just got a record player and that shit is so fun while sounding so much better than I thought it would

I’ve got to get a good one. My son got me one for Christmas a couple years ago but the sound is not good. Anybody know a decent mid priced model? How much do high-end ones cost?

I have SO MANY vinyls from the 60s thru 80s that I want to play so bad

Fuck if I know yo, I just got a shitty starter record player. I literally just learned that you should be keeping your records vertical, still trying to figure out a nice site to get records from, I'm like the last person in this entire sub that could help you.

Look into U-Turn or Pro-Ject. Music Hall also has a good entry level table that I’ve had for the last 10 years. Still going strong.

You’ll still need an amplifier and stereo speakers, but those are some of the cheapest modern “entry level” hi-fi tables you’ll find at $400-500. Good luck!

HA I wish! I did have the BSR changer, bought in a thrift store and refurbished, but I gave it away to a teenager friend of my daughter that wanted to get into vinyl. I'm using a Denon now.

Have my eye on a Denon turntable just so I can play that exact album again.

Cool picture. And interesting — you look alone but then who took the photo? Did you take it yourself with a timer?

Eyetothesky OP t1_iu313u6 wrote

Self timer shot. Might have been for a class. But for sure I was trying capture a feel I was having.

It could use a Farrah Fawcett poster.

That was down in my room in the basement. Been there since 1976 I believe.

Eh, maybe a cassette deck on the stereo, but other than that, no.

Eyetothesky OP t1_iu4ha1m wrote

The cassette deck is on the carpet on the right

Ahhhh. I thought that was just an amp/equalizer. I stand corrected.
