Ok I guess this is my best example of a “phonospace”.

In your relatively short time collecting, you've managed to get some nice machines that took me many years to find. But then, when I started, there was no internet, so you had to get out and find whatever happened to be in the area. Antique shows, flea markets, garage & estate sales, newspaper classifieds, Michigan Antique Phonograph Society functions, (now part of APS), and of course Union. Until the internet, I never found a new machine while sitting at my kitchen table. In some ways, it was more fun the "old way".dzavracky wrote: Thu Jun 10, 2021 1:31 pm Hi everyone,
I know I already posted my collection in April of last year, but since then the room has changed quite a bit. Hopefully this will be how the room will stay for awhile... I really need to stop buying them(My girlfriend is laughing at me while I am writing this)
So here is my phonograph room! I got the credenza on Tuesday.. I will make a post about it when I have some more time.
Cheers,

Yeah I think I should move the radio where the Vic II is sitting near the wall and move the VV 8-4 the other way around in a less awkward area.dzavracky wrote: Sun Jun 13, 2021 7:10 am
Andy it seems like listening to the credenza is difficult? Those are some nice machines though!
