Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I think Teac were the domestic spin-off from Tascam?Originally Posted by struth
Anyway I think they look the business. There's a VRDS20 on eBay now for a grand https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304692369201? But really my limit will be half that.

Those VRDS machines look bomb, and bullet-proof, and they don't sound too bad either.

I've had a VRDS 25X for well over 10 years and it's never let me down. Can't really go wrong.

Had VRDS10 back in the day. Very nice machine and build quality strong despite of some cd tray belt issues. However these are still fully serviceable today I think..

There's one going for £500 but I've been resisting temptation.

Today's job - sorting out my CD collection.
Oh dear. It's expanded considerably since I last did this.
About 35 in each tower and 12 towers so approx 420 albums. Think I might split genres rather than just do a straight A to Z as previously.
Jazz, Rap/Hip-Hop and then everything else?

I have my CD collection divided into genre, as I do with my LP collection. I do it because I have very broad tastes in music. So the divisions are:
Classical
Blues (including early R&B)
Jazz
Folk
'World', and anything culturally ethnic
Pop and Rock (all categories).
I find it convenient, because if l'm playing something with guests and they like what they hear, then I can follow it with something similar. Conversely, if they would prefer to hear something different, I can find that too.

Bummed... not heard that in many years.
Oh no, trying to sort into genres would properly do my head in. If your towers are those 'chrome wirey' kind of things I can see that being a PITA.
This what you need: 480 CDs storage, 70 quid. Nail it to the wall, job done.
