The ones I always see are retro 50s style. Are there any nice 70/80s style stereo systems that play albums and cassettes?

Retro Stereo Systems?
You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Tags: None -

I actually prefer vintage systems. over the summer I got a beautiful Magnavox console system circa mid to late sixties, at an estate sale for $50.00. had to have the turntable repaired which was a little pricey as not many places work on them anymore. but all worth it to me. looks and sounds awesome. no tape deck in mine but I don't have any interest in cassettes. threw all mine in the garbage years ago. I got it for the turntable. I do see systems that are cassette players at sales and thrift shops all the time though. I guess it's a matter of whether the players still work or not. I still have my Pioneer rack system that I bought around 1990 but the cassette player doesn't work anymore, probably from lack of use. I think, like with VCR's, the components dry out if not used regularlyComment

I bought a pre amp for a vintage Technics turntable and new needle and man! My home theatre blasts out some vinyl tunes. I think I paid $20 on eBay for the pre amp. I let’s you play an old phono output on a stereo setup. Totally worth it. I’ve got one of those retro things and it just doesn’t sound good at all.Comment

i picked up a sound design console with stereo, 8 track and turntable at an estate sale 3-4 years ago for $5.00, no lie. Had to do a little repair but then it sounded great. I put it aside for my oldest daughter when she graduates from collegeComment

Why not just buy an 80's vintage stereo system? It will be better built and likely last you much longer than something newly made that looks vintage. Why spend your hard earned money on something that's overpriced and poorly made?
Just my two cents. I could be full of it as I'm no expert in this area.

Have you tried vintage stores or pawn shops? That might be a good place to check out. Or you might even just want to ask people at yard/garage sales - some people might have great stuff they don't think anyone wants anymore.Comment
