Title: And Suddenly Beethoven Filled the House
Post by: 2ndTimer on June 14, 2015, 07:14:36 AM: Just finished hooking up my $8.00 from Goodwill CD player. It works perfectly. God, I feel smug.

I'm sure he would approve your smugness. :)

I like most kinds of music, the exceptions being country, gospel, and death metal. But the older I get, the better Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart sounds.

I definitely find this to be the case.

In the mean time, I stopped at the Goodwill right in my neighborhood and picked up an old Kenwood. Beethoven is once more heard in the house. Kenwood doesn't sound as good as the TEAC did but I can live with it until I find the something better.
