I saw the back of an integrated and it depressed me.
Recently took a look at an ad for a Technics SU-G700M2 integrated amplifier, and honestly it made me a little sad for me, my hobby and the gear I ended up with.
When I "wore a younger man's shoes" I needed inputs! I was going to have a turntable, a Tandberg reel to reel and cassette player, and that new fangled CD player would be there as well.
This new integrated has 5 digital inputs and 2 analog inputs... and anyway I just want to drink while playing Billy Joel radio on my Roon streamer.
"An accident caused a seemingly uber-fragile screen on a flat screen TV to break the other day, necessitating a new TV." We had a plasma TV come into our shop years ago for repair with a bullet hole through the screen. I decided to exercise my First Amendment Right, keep my mouth shut, and not ask any questions. I believe the cost of a new panel was more than the replacement cost of the TV. We kept it around for a while, just because. |
@campoly *L* Well, not just yet.... ;) No particular rush to make that Great Leap into the Unknown Infinite...and so there's still time to play 'Plugs 'n Cables' with my finite pile of Stuff...
