Home stereo systems. As a kid I remained enthralled by the metal face and the heavily tactile buttons and switches and knobs. You felt a delicious variety of feedbacks for every action you took. I honestly think we really lost something special when tactility left technology. It was so satisfying to just use.
My friend's dad had one with a remote that when you changed the volume on the remote the volume knob would move. I thought it was so cool
Lol that is definitely cool, no thinking required.
My hifi does that, (a very cheap second hand Teac system) it makes me giddy every time it does it!
Luckily, the age of proper home stereo systems isn't over unless you want it to be. But be warned, it's an expensive rabbit hole to fall into...
Yeah, I grabbed an old Technics deck to fix up. So many other things were waaay too expensive.
Find a video of the Marantz 2150 with the oscilloscope built in,or the Telefunken reel to deal with the glowing level meter. Really wished I'd kept both of those
That's dope. Would love to get one of those some day.
