HERE ARE THE FUCKING TOWELS
I finally put together my (mostly)vintage stereo system - every single item pictured came from either the Salvation Army or Goodwill and it took me six years to piece it all together. It all works, even the reel-to-reel.

I'm still trying to find better speakers, the ones I'm using now are Frankensteinian abortions made up of parts from like five different vinatge speakers housed in old Realistic boxes.





Bang & Olefson Beomaster 4400 reciever
Kenwood KD-3070 turntable
Ampex 1100 reel-to-reel tape recorder
Pioneer 8-track recorder
some piece of poo poo cassette deck from the Eighties
Sony 200 CD player
Radio Shack 3-deck dubbing switchbox

One question, though, what are the little rubber cups called that hold the reel from falling off the spindle(see arrow in photo)? And where can I get them? Right now I'm using masking tape, which is too ghetto even for me.
