Heck, that ebon face and those cerulean meters would make a great match with a Mac stack, too.

    I love when you talk science talk to me. I almost had to look up ebon but since it's so close to ebony and black well my methodical mind got it . The meters on the other hand well not exactly McIntosh maybe as a prop. ...lol
    Last 8 track I owned was in my'68 Rambler American that made it cross country and also had an FM converter, remember those. ?

    Really excellent job recording the playback for the vid. Sounded terrific through my Senns open backs. Brought back some memories of seeing Steve Miller live at an open air venue back in '96. That was back when grass was still illegal and goers were having to be sneaky about it, lol.
