Why all this wasted pages on 78's? When asked to do a review of CURRENT products, there is no space, but why the useless writings of 78's? Let's keep going backwards, I bet some reviewer is gonna say, wow, there is something off those 78's that just can't be had off of 33 1/3 vinyl, shellac brittle 78's have a certain magic, and when compared to modern digital, 78's really hold their own. I think the magazine is going insane? Enough of wasted space on crap 78's is this Antique Records magazine? Wow, look how fast they spin, something the youth of today missed out on, right?

It didn't stick in the 70s[quadraphonic] and now it's just sort of in the background with SACD "drying up" and most audiophiles clinging to stereo.
I'm not into multi-channel myself but as I sat listening to my stereo setup last night the thought popped into my head.
Any thoughts?

So I am at college and need to start paying for music now, so I figured that I should probably get a sound system worthy of playing my music. I can't spend more than $1000 on everything and don't 'want' to spend more than $500. I plan on buying most things on ebay and on craigslist. I don't have transportation so I can't really cruise the garage sales or test equipment at audio shops. I just need some proper equipment that I won't be sorry with and will work well for the money I have. So far from the research I've done I've come up with this.
