    1983 Lenco LRP 5450 DD record player &

    1998 Yamaha RX-496 RDS stereo receiver

    My stepfather got them for us 2nd hand for a joint present. Quite a decent system!

    Not a real audiophile, but it works well and we enjoy it.

    I also made a Google Home kind of thing out of it using an ESP32S3 that uses ESPHome, Home Assistant, and Music Assistant to make it a Spotify connect node to play Spotify through it, control it with an IR blaster, and use Voice Assistant with it if I am not too far (it has a single mema mic)

    I have an electric singer sewing machine from 1964 and another one from around 1950. Amazing how well they work.

    I have a Milton Bradley Microvision from around 1979, the first handheld game system that used cartridges. I have the block breaker game, it still works but I think some components are wearing out as the game speed feels way too fast. Thing takes 2 9V batteries!

    An originally original gameboy. Still worked until about 2 years ago. I assume there’s just a little battery or a capacitor that needs replacing, but I haven’t had the time to look into it.
