How many will listen to tape and vinyl in the next century?


Something between 500 and 1000 people, maybe?

I am still in 20th century too and will remain there forever. Interesting how we try to bend time, subjectively.

The end of this Century is a long time off.  So, who knows what we will be using at the end of this Century.

Remember 8 track players?  they sounded pretty good.  Then cassette decks, then digital tapes, then CD's, on and on.  A really good digital set up vs a really good analog (turntable) setup and in my opinion, the turntable setup still sounds better.  Digital is much closer, but not there yet.

However, I just finished a maintenance job on my cassette deck (pinch rollers, belts, cleaning, adjusting), and listening to my old tapes that I recorded directly from turntables, I have to say, they sound really good.  I'm keeping the tape deck. 

Now to find a Nakamichi Dragon tape deck.  That would be nice.

Also, 1970 In-Violet Purple Plymouth Barracuda.  That is the car from the 70's.

Dragon is difficult and expensive to maintain, and it doesn't sound better than some others. I suggest 682ZX or ZX-9. The former is a little warmer, the latter has a little more resolution. I use 682ZX almost every day.
