This old beutiful furniture, made by my mums grandfather, hides some stuff that I inherited from my dad, amongst other things a very nice #Sansui881 analouge receiver as well as a #FostexX-15 multitrack cassete recorder and a #Tandberg1200X stereo tape recorder. On top of the cupboard is an #Dual510 #vinylplayer

The speakers are a remnant from an old 80s Pioneer "all-in-one" stereo and would be nice with something more suitable to the rest of the setup... ->

-> The original speakers to the setup was built by my uncle from really nice elemements, but he got them back. They were way too heavy and chunky anyways! But something better would be nice as mentioned...

In the vinylstands on each sides are mostly my dads old records, mainly 60s and 70s Jazz records. The original collection was 3-4 times as big but we divided it along the siblings.

Looking forward to listen to it! -->

--> I inaugurated it some days ago by just picking a random Vinyl. It ended up being the duo record "Ella and Oscar". Havent heard that before and not usually a big fan of Oscar Peterson (neither was my dad if I remember correct) but on this record he really shines! And I was surprised to hear quite alot of my Dad in that record (of course otherway round😅). So I guess he was pretty influenced by this one in his journey towards #jazz (which didnt start until mid 20s for him.)
