mr_m1 my parents kept the records in the sleeves.But then stacked them on the spindle because they had an automatic turntable:-)
You are invited on a "trip down memory lane".
This thread is, of course, mainly hyperbole (or less kindly B.S.). But that said, what is an item from your sound system over the course of your journey that you would most want to have back? I have sold some that I, likely, should not have. Mine would be the CJ ART pre-amp and the Magnepan MG-20....a distant 3rd and mostly nostalgia would be the Dahlquist DQ-10 speakers.
