Hi everyone, I'm excited to have found this forum. I love the 80s/90s and have stuff of that era I'm sure aren't too exciting. Sony CFS3000, mint tc-we405, wm-f2015, and the reason I'm here: super nice wm-AF54, but with hinges begining to crack. I still (happily) use cassette decks in my 80s and 90s cars too. But I will be searching for ways to save my hinges from breaking without messing up the beautiful aesthetic of the yellow plastic. I suppose I'll be posting that Q in the proper forum soon. Marty
Welcome Marty! For some reason introduction posts don't seem to pop up immediately for me. I drive big ole dirty trucks for work and most have tape-decks, it's nice to hit up the local thrifts for dirt cheap tapes. In the 80's even the crappy bands were putting out tapes that you could listen all the way through.
Hi all. I'm a new member as of about 20 minutes ago. I'm learning to navigate, so hope it gets easier for me? I'm from Canada as well, just outside of Toronto. I'm more of the 70s/80s generation. I have a sweet Sony collection of stereo gear and cassette decks from the early 70s all the way up to the mid 80s. I used to make mix tapes for my friends in the early 80s... miss those days.
Welcome to the site.I have been on here since before it moved platforms and we all had to rejoin. Regarding navigation I still find that Google does a better job than the on site search facility. It still surprises me how often when you Google a Personal stereo model number a Stereo2Go article pops up.
Thanks Longman, at least I know I'm doing things correctly... lol. True, I only found this site while searching stuff in Google. Cheers from all the way in Canada.
My biggest difficulty right now is starting a new post or forum. To be honest, this it the first time I ever joined a forum. I'm not even on Facebook, Twitter, and the rest of those sites.... I'm really old school, hence why I'm on here, the old stereo stuff.
Hey Mister X, Sony BBboy, Longman — nice to meet you all. I'm just outside Toronto too. I'm glad I hung onto all my cassettes even when I switched to CDs in the early 90s. With the rising popularity and collectibility of 80s and 90s cars, I think cassettes are going to enjoy a second life.
Hi Marty. I'd like to know if you have a few really good service techs in the Toronto area that you could recommend? I'm finding it difficult to find anyone who still does the old stuff, especially cassette decks anymore. I'm in the West end of TO, but would willing to venture out to the West end. I'm in Milton.
