My Crosley may look old but it's new wonderful!
By Demon_Buttercup onI'm a 80s girl and I have a huge collection of vinyl records.I have not had a record player for years and years and was longing to hear some of my old favorites when Target got in a new product, the Crosley 4 in 1 home stereo.
Crosley's products are designed to look old.My system has a housing of brown wood and it looks similar to the radios of olden days.However, the top lifts up on hinges and viola, there is a turn table!I was once again able to listen to my favorite records.
The system also has a discreet Cd player and cassette player.The radio tuner is right on front.All of the buttons are designed to make it look like it is just part of the radio.The oddest thing about this unit is the cassette player is on the side of the system.I almost didn't see it where it was!All the buttons are on front, but the actual place you insert the cassette is way on the side.
The sound quality of this unit is good - not great - but good.It is plently loud and clear for the room it is in.I love the unique look of this unit and the size is perfect.Yet, best of all, one year later, I still get to listen to my pink vinyl records from 1988!
I miss the old-style records, too. :-) (or should I say the original records)
Got to love 80s music on vinyl records ;) I saw this at target and wondered about it. I sitll have my old LPs that I haven't listened to in ages. Maybe I will have to put it on my Christmas wish list :)
A turn table? They still make them?? LOL Maybe I wont get rid of my 45's and LPs lol
I have tons of LPs that I would love to listen to again including some local musicians that I cannot find on Itunes or other download sites. Wonder if you can still find needles for turntables.
I've seen these in stores and wondered if they were any good. I've still got all my old records and would love to hear them again.
