Capstan Servo



This is one of those cases of realising you have more money than you used to. Back in the 80's when I was a teenager I lusted after a Walkman Professional - it was always out of my price range and I couldn't talk my parents into squandering such large amounts of money on their son. I had to make do with a succession of cheaper models that always broke ( headphone jacks usually ). The other day while passing my neighbourhood high end hi-fi boutique this caught my eye in the window. 250 Euros later it's mine and I'm busy checking out my old mix tapes. These days with iPods getting smaller & lighter it nice to have a huge clunking brick of a music player in your (large)pocket. Thanks Knokki
