@SuperSnegirek Oh yes! It has ran into crisis! I am being lied off (for the main company is closing down)... In June!!!! , So yes, out of work... in 4 1/2 months1
Sure, cassette players have great very stylish design. But I like vinyl records 'cause they sound much better than CD, mp3. CD has digital dead sound trasformed by computer software.
@SuperSnegirek Hey, I agree for vinyl sound... I still use MiniDisc and all my 200 LPs are recorded onto MiniDisc, and I still listen to the LPs as LP on a turntable... The sound is so much more full. And cassettes are the next best thing. I also Have a VZ3500, VZ2500 and VZ2000 for my LPs.
@SuperSnegirek Minidisc was kind of like invented to replace the cassette. You can record like a cassette, earace like a cassette and re-use over and over a minidisc, like a cassette. but it is digital and compresses to the range of the human ear. Use a search engine to search for Minidisc and read up. If not, been the time frame where Minidiscs came along... they did not last long because the were then presented the MP3 players, and people used that more, even now.
@bredgeo1 I got surfed internet, I found a lot info on minidiscs. Minidisks are news for me 'cause I never knew about it before. I was not able buy this one 'cause they were not sold in USSR (I was born in USSR).
@SuperSnegirek Well... No, they came out after the change of USSR to the Republic. Here have a read of of Wikipedia... MiniDisc came out in 1992, but being not verry popular in the US and Europe, they did not make it to Russia. That is all.
@SuperSnegirek Yes, I mounted the MiniDisc into the GF308 that only takes MiniDisc now (the 308 is a Japanese model, got from Japan)... And into the GF9595, that still takes cassette and now MiniDisc and cassette.
@SuperSnegirek Yes for the GF9595... Because of the depth of the door, I could put the MD inside and leave the cassette and used phone-in (by bypassing the pre amp). For the others, I had to remove the cassette and then put the MD inside, using the tape buttons as the "On" "Off" power source, etc.
@SuperSnegirek I actually use all the internal parts of the Boomboxes and the MiniDisc with an extra head to align with the original head, and an extra transformer for the power... It took trial and error, but worked out in the end! Have made 4 up to now.
Hee, hee, hee!!! As you can imagine Ed.... Neighbours do not give a crap about old radios.... And I do not put it too loud any-ways for I passed that age ;-)
