I'm trying to remember if I've ever seen a Reel to Reel in real life before. Pretty much everyone I knew had records and cassettes before CDs. Grandma still had an 8 track but never listened to it.The reel to reel my dad bought before I was born is in far better shape than I am. I was told his original speakers didn't make it back from Germany though, but I am sure they would have lasted about as long.
I got one in Japan on my first cruise. Had it for years. Maybe I'll dig up a pic of it. It was a Teac, iirc.I'm trying to remember if I've ever seen a Reel to Reel in real life before.

That stereo system in the top left looks a lot like the one we had when I was a kid. It was unfortunately fried by a lightning strike in 91. Its replacement is still in use by my parents, with a digital to analog adapter, so they can watch movies with the previously mentioned speakers.Found it! Even has the custom cabinet I made for all the goodies. Circa 1972 on Oahu. I also had Bose 501 speakers at the time.
