The big Micro DSeiki TTs from the lat 70s/early 80s were monsters - great sounding things with immaculate build quality. Shame they're not around any more.

Interesting Yahoo-Groups are on Micro-Seiki if anyone's interested. Little on their CD players and the mods they carried out though :(

Conceptually I'd guess the closest thing nowadays to one of the old MS giants would be the Tech Das which I understand is made by the former designer of MS anyway.

Agree on the MS stuff.

Watched this vid a while ago. The TechDAS is a monster. I can just hear it now. "Honey! I can't get the record off the platter....??"
