Did I just see a Casio PT-80? I still have the one I bought new as a kid

Oddly enough, I have a 50 year old living room holding 120+ years of tech

What cylinders do you listen to?
stuffitystuff@reddit
Not many since I only have a dozen or so but I have a recording reproducer and a bunch of blanks so I can make my own.
orion3311@reddit
Called it! And recorder?? Is it a triumph?
stuffitystuff@reddit
Nah it's all the same unit — an Edison Standard — just a different needle on the recording reproducer...at least I think that's the correct term for the cylinder equivalent of a phono cartridge that records. I swap it out for the regular reproducer used to listen to my tubez
orion3311@reddit
Ah ok. I have the "Triumph" model which is physically larger than a standard, as it has a more powerful motor for recording supposedly (but I dont have the recording cartridge).
stuffitystuff@reddit
Neat! Yeah those Triumphs can practically pedal my bicycle for me. Maybe the 4 minute cylinders need a more powerful motor for recording? I haven't heard of those actually being recordable by the usual means, though, so I'm not sure on that.
orion3311@reddit
Ah I forgot - it also has an eraser, maybe thats it. (Seperate part in the back for wiping a cylinder)

The tech makes the basement feel young again.

That is a ridiculously huge basement

For a moment I thought it was just me thinking on that. That’s enormous!
mangwar@reddit
I’m not sure what is going on here but I like it

Thats a faily young basement but all the tech looks to be from 2020. Gaming PCs? LED monitors?

It's lovely. Just make sure you test for radon.

Love the cozy, slightly-dystopian, and cyberpunk-ish vibe! Nice lil hide-a-way!

I would kill to have this much room to setup fun stuff like this.
MainFunctions@reddit
Dude what a super cosy awesome little space. This is what I always thought my room would look like when I was a kid
