Way cool. Multi-media mid 60's style. Ya, dude could watch Lawrence Welk and jam to the polka party! Ever see Elvis' TV room at Graceland? Sorta plywood cutouts for the equipment, nothing very high end, though he did have another rig (if memory serves, it was in the handball court which is now part of the museum) which did have some Crown stuff.
Don Draper would feel very comfortable in that room.
That tuner is a Scott 4310, their all-time top tuner.
I should say all-time top Tube tuner. If you want to know whether it's better than the 312, you need to send it to me for evaluation! :-)
That's a great photo. The scene looks like the early 1960's.
It's interesting how time changes perspective on things.
It's very cool and retro now, almost antique.
But in the 1980's it was just plain OLD.
In twenty (or less) years, the equipment we treasure will also be OLD.
In fifty years it will be cool again.
