I love my 2o-24 Inch five year old Tru-Flat CRT TV.

I love my 1980's-90's Stereo cassette decks equallizers and CD players and such

I love my 1970's receivers

I love my just-now aquired but older HT system.

But I think that people for one need to be open to change. My older sound system might just stop working in a few years and then I will have to Buy and look at some of the older stuff. I can't be so narrow minded and focus so much on the age of the equipment that I End up being stuck in the past.

Hell If I can't take the turntable out of my soundesign all in one and Put it into a custom plinth - I could do away with vinyl playback all togeather. or wait for a real turntable to come along I missed out on a thorens with a bad belt.


If my CRT TV blows up I may just HAVe to buy a NEw TV and it won't be CRT if I can help it I could buy a Small 4:3 LCD or a used LCD PC monitor on Amazon.com and a VGA video Tuner so that the monitor can be used as a TV. that way I can move into the future and see why the LCD is so hyped. Heck My current PC monitor is LCD and I watched some movies on it and noticed that wide-screen movies were better on the 19 inch widescreen LCD.

I will Embrace HD when I get the money to do so Hell I probably will upgrade everything. You can't fight the future and I know that sometimes things change for the better, change is good.
