Found this in the garage....

I have the "symphony" alpine oem unit in my ZT - which is a bit odd as I'm sure project drive had killed them off by then for a halfords type job .

 

There's also a period radio cassette in the cortina, which still works but chews tapes. Can't remember what it is. I quite fancy putting a mid 80s Capri one in - with the led display but still buttons and knobs. They are class

I want a tape player for the Visa so I can play my CHOONS from my phone via one of these:

I have a head unit from some unidentified PSA chod to which you are welcome for the price of the postage, Mr Imp.

You will literally be the king of the road doings hands free phone calls in a Citroen Visa.

 

I doff my cap to you, sir.

The wife's Gen1 Bmw MINI has a tape player, and a 6 disc changer as standard.  I have 'found' my old tapes, and I bet that if you change MODE to tape it will be playing side one of the Stone Roses, or Maybe Echo and the BunnyMen.

 

It's actually a really quality sound.

I grew up listening to Dark Side Of The Moon on an original '73 issue cassette, badly delaminating, through a £9 Saisho personal with a three-band equalizer. When I eventually got it on CD I hated it.

 

I wasn't used to what treble sounds like.

When i bought mine in 1993 i paid around £130 for it.

 

Comparitvely speaking they are quite cheap now.

what, no 8 tracks? I have a couple of players stashed away but both need new drive belts.
