recent scores!!
 

since i cant post at ak for awile, figured id share some of my latest finds with you guys, i scooped up a really nice sony str-7025 and str-v1 last week, they both sound nice and didnt take much to get mint! i also got a roberts rtr and a realistic sta-64 in horrible condition (roadside score), a yamaha cr-1040, and i also got about 5 new bpc receivers, a pair of jbl speakers, a pioneer tt, and a few other odds and ends.

here are some of the recent finds worth photographing lol

so the wonderful world of vintage audio hunting is still alive and well for me! i hope to be back at ak soon cause i wanna start doing reviews and receiver shoot-outs, and actully write threads worth reading! lol

Nice. Especially that Yamaha.

I have a Nakamichi 480 I am trying to resurrect. I've replaced all of the rubber parts, but the mechanism that raises the tape heads is binding somewhere. I'll fix it sooner or later.
Just have to pull it apart again............work, work, work..............

NAKAMICHI made some really nice decks, i have one in storage (i forget the model) that sits upright and is real thin, its all chrome and wood and has touch sensitive controls.

1000? (Not to be confused with the 1000zxl which is an entirely different animal.)

Should I even ask? :confused:

no probubly not. im taking some manditory vacation time, i got a little crazy and too deep into my stereo hobby. pissed a few people off, and i got banned. honestly, i hold full responcibility of my actions and probubly diserved it. grumpy is a pretty cool and very fair guy, and he will let me back in when he thinks im ready, and ive accepted it. so for now (and i hope this is ok) im gunna post my audio stuff in this off topic fourm. only because OFF topic of the website. and i dont think im allowed to use the ak temp fourm, cause i guess it would be like cheating. i know this site is mostly audiokarma people and its the only way i can still get intouch with people there. i hope its ok that i post this and that it dosent offend anyone. cause i dont mean any harm by it.

yeah maybe, its in storage and its been awile since i looked at it. i forgot the model #. but it dosent look anything like normal cassette decks. it almost reminds me of a folding book? very strange design.

It happens.

I am an Arkansas graduate who got banned from "Hogcall.com" for indicating that Bobby Petrino is slime (duh!) and that Ryan Mallett is a choking, criminal, headcase who will go the way of Dan McGwire, last March: but its, probably, not the same sort of situation (I don't know).

Occasionally, a poster will email me to indicate the conniptions they're (the Board) having as NFL scouts drop Mallett on their draft list based in what I pointed out, long ago, but I have no desire to grovel my way back by being "right."

Screw 'em.

Of course -- recent developments occurring -- it appears I was 100% correct. :D

Bobby Petrino is slime.

That appears to be the case Zeke. I suspect he'll be losing his job soon.
