New receiver and re-racking...

[orange]

Pioneer CLD-S104 Laserdisc/CD (CD tray in the LD door slides out to load)

VSX-D307

CT-F600

CT-F1250

I have the H-R100 8 track recorder on a side shelf

and my JVC HR-S6800U on top of the tower to send a coaxial video signal to the Trinitron on the other side.

And my usual Technics SL-1350 turntable
and Polk Audio Monitor 4s

I like that CT-F1250, it was the one I always lusted after in the 1980's and 1990's.

I bought it from a Tapehead, took 2-3 installments and cost over $450...WORTH IT. As close to like new as you could hope for.

Adding this for more video flexibility, have a similar one by Kenwood in my bedroom system.

Looks like you've been busy Steven! The 1250 is my favorite of the Pioneer's. Someday I hope to have another but I doubt it will happen. For now I have a Denon 3-head which gets used for a day or two every few months

Right now I'm up all night and sleeping all day but it's unfortunately nothing like this.,..

Interesting side note on Slaughter. I went to HS with the bass player (the long-haired blonde guy on the right) and his name was Dana Strumwasser. He changed his name to Dana Strum after HS. He was, by the way, a very good bass player.

Went downtown to the thrift store and found a Sony DVD-VHS combo player for $7. Wanted to watch my tapes before I die or whatever, been years. Also a new set of 4 NiMH batteries and a charger at Staples, for my camera.

(No, none of the VHS or Beta decks I have are working well, have to fix them)

Wondered why nothing was charging, figured out there was a plastic cover on the negative terminals, BINGO.

We call that a battery condom.

I called it a freakin' piece of plastic I didn't know about.
