I prefer modern televisions, projectors, and home theater systems, but for just about everything else, I seek out older devices because I think things were made better back then. I've snagged some antique radios at estate sales. I've sold a few, but I mostly buy them for the nostalgia. My older relatives love to display them as a reminder of their childhood. I currently use my father's old Zenith stereo system. It plays records and tapes and has the standard radio, amps, and speakers. I had to replace the cartridge, but other than that, it worked fine, even after all that time of sitting and gathering dust. Most of the records still play too. My girls listen to my old Fisher Price record player that I got for my third birthday. You might have had one of these - they looked like a small suitcase and were very popular back in the day. I was born right when records were about to be replaced by cassette tapes.
