My mother's old phonograph died, and she has a whole stack of "classic" old 78s and 45s. She also has a classic old radio, and she likes that stuff. I have a great collection of old folk music from the 60s on 33 LPs, that I worry about. I bought the TEAC thinking at least she could play her records (have a 33 turntable, one of the last). When it arrived I discovered it has line-out jacks on the back, and I am now busily transferring my album collection and Mom's to the computer, and then I will make CDs of all of them! The records can become keepsakes, and we can listen to the music as many times as we want without "wearing them out." Great sound, great radio, great 3-speed turntable for the price. The speakers are not real hi-fi, is the only drawback, and I would have liked an auto-changer, but for this price I'm very happy.

I agree with everything the gentleman above said and would like to add that if you've got a ton of older vinyl records gathering dust in the garage, you simply cannot go wrong with this system (the TEAC Nostalgic AM/FM Turntable Stereo System - GF-180)! The only problem I've found is that as the gentleman notes above, the speakers are not truly hi-fidelity. This is easily remedied with a line out for speakers in the back of the box. On a decent pair of stereo speakers this is truly a wonderful system for either radio or recording vinyl. Have fun!
