Re: [newmellotrongroup] Mellotronics M3000 HD for iPad

2010-12-28 by Tony

The Victrola is 78 RPM, kinda hard to listen to "modern music".
But it entertained my great grand parents, hence the "retention" of the device.
We had a Motorola HiFi too, spun my "Meet the Beatles" on it in mono too.
I don't understand why so many people still want vinyl, not much channel seperation or dynamic range there.
And I'm also a trained audio engineer and piano tuner, so no "tin ear" here.

Cool. I still have my parents' old Motorola HiFi. Mono... Excellent for listening to early Beatles and Beach Boys records. I haven't used it in 25 years.

I have a Victrola, been in the family for a very long time, and it looks and works fine.
Not for sale at any price.

Does your HiFi include a Victrola? ;-)

We have put the iPad through our standard hifi system and it sound amazing - especially our app! Serously, the audio is first class.
