Early hike today, walking the cliff edge on the Crimson Trail in Logan Canyon. Beautiful day.

Another acquisition strikes. I picked up a Taiwanese Nakamichi mini system after the hike. I've never had a mini receiver. There's one that has appeared several times recently in local ads.

I decided "probably not". Then another came up, last night.

Same receiver, with companion CD/cassette player and speakers, for a lot less. So I got it. At the very least the kids can sell it when I'm dead.

Playing the Prokfiev because it was in the player. I will clean the tape path before trying a cassette. FM is fine.

It makes 14 watts at 1 khz. Best of all, has preout/main in jacks. I could use it in main system while I pull and work on a few pieces. The speakers are lightweights but look good and sound OK. Cone tweeters.

Beautiful canyon pic! What I'd do to go hiking there!! Nice.
 
Oh yes , sciatic nerve been acting up. I’ve been streaming Spotify and using my phone as a remote for the last while. CD player still works like a champ, I have several new cd’s to play. Tried playing Lps the other day after work but only got through two before I started streaming again.
Sorry to hear about sciatic nerve issue. I had a bad bout with sciatica around 2011 and hope to never go through that again.
