Christmas Gift Idea #11

I’m considering buying one of these little boxes for myself. I have over 1,100 phonograph albums from the 1950’s, 1960’s and 1970’s (including all 13 of the Beatles original albums). This could solve my problem by easily converting them all to CD’s plus having a record player around in case I want to play the original record. And before anyone asks ... no, I don’t have any 78RPM records (although this thing will play them).

TEAC Phono CD Recorder
(FirstStreetOnline) - $399

Is storage space running low from all of those boxes filled with old, worn out, vintage, vinyl albums? Are all of those boxes wasting away on a shelf or in the attic? Why not put those albums and that space to good use? Those classic albums still hold their sentimental and monetary value while sitting sadly in the dark.

Of course, there is that feeling that you still want to listen, and enjoy that music but the hassle of pulling them out and cleaning them is often just too much. Well then take those old albums and change them into CDs. What? How?

Easy, you can use the Phono CD Recorder. It allows those old vinyl albums to be recorded in digital audio format, for high quality sound in a smaller more modern Compact Disc. If you still want to enjoy the old style of the vinyl album then the Recorder still provides a 3 speed turn table, with a special stylus which will eliminate some of the hiss from the album.

The Phono CD Recorder also features a record level control and a record level indicator. Once you have the CDs ready to go but you can’t figure out which one to listen to, then put the built in CD player on shuffle. If you find yourself enjoying one specific song then put the CD player on the repeat option and you’re ready to go.

There is also a built in radio that has a 32-track memory and provides AM/FM frequencies. A rotary tuner gives the Phono CD Recorder an elegant and exciting look. It also has a hinged cabinet design, and a black wood finish.

If you have a ton of cassette tapes you can hook a tape deck to the Phono CD Recorder and copy those to a CD as well. It’s an all-in-one unit that can take care of your stereo needs. Now you can have all the necessary equipment in one unit instead of buying separate pieces.
Do you want to bring your favorite tunes out of hiding and listen to them while traveling down the road or just relaxing in your home? If you answered yes, this is the perfect solution for you! Arrives with remote control, two “AA” batteries, and a 45rpm adapter.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
