Yes, I found the butcher in 1st state and had a guy professionally peel it. Technically less valuable when peeled, I wanted to see the original cover and don't care about that.

Very cool! Believe it or not, I graduated med school at 42 but I wasn't the oldest in my class. A practicing psychologist went back to be a physchiatrist. She was 55I grew up in the Bronx. I started med school at 31 and completed residency (every 3rd night on call for 3 years) at 38. I got a standing ovation at residency graduation LOL. I completed a Fellowship in Behavioral and Developmental Pediatrics at 40 and then finally entered the work force for good. Retired at 66. Thankfully, I went on a surround DVD and SACD buying binge a year before I retired.
I did 4 years of residency in anesthesia and a year of pediatric anesthesia fellowship. Didn't get to start practicing until 48. Still working full time at 64 with call!

My recently purchased Rotel RAP 1580MKii. Rotel calls it an integrated amp rather than an AVR because it does not include a tuner.
Not the best picture as the unit is in a wooden stereo cabinet behind an LG OLED 65" TV. I'm really liking the sound so far.

I remember the first CD jukeboxes to come into the bars, they were a revelation and revolution.
The 45's would get all worn and nasty sounding in a short time, not the CD's, they sounded the same from day 1 to ten years later. It was such a kool thing back then!
There’s that same warmth with vinyl 45s, playing on the jukebox, if they’re in good shape, similar to listening to vinyl albums today that are in good shape, that you’ll never get from an automated cd player. Besides, the best thing about watching these things play, are the mechanical relays that are all timed to pull a 45, you see it get chosen, then it’s mechanically, chosen from the rack, grabbed, flipped and then put down down on the platter, and then the platter turns on, and then the amplifier turns the Stylus on so you hear it, and then reversed. You’re right that a lot of the juke 45s got worn out from over playing in bad needles. These old mechanical machines, in good shape, you can get 15,000 or more for when you want to sell it. The CD jukeboxes will cost you five to $7000, but they’re not really worth anything afterwards
I've still got mine, both Sony, a DTC-690 & a portable TCD-D7!

I lifted it, but bent at the knees! I know my limits. lol
Hey Sonik, I think you were looking at Baggy's set up, not GOS's..
Ooops indeed. I glanced too quick at the Emotiva boxes. I still think the stand is a good idea over a warm amplifier.
re: Sony DTC-690...
I just have 1 DAT prerecorded tape and never owned a DAT machine - how reliable are they [both tapes and machines] after several decades?
