Well - actually, a proper bachelor would save the 8-tracks for the car,
and I'm sure it would be a Mazda with the gearshift on the steering
column.

In the bachelor pad itself, a reel-to-reel machine would be the chief
delivery mechanism for the Bert Kaempfert and James Last. Maybe the
bachelor would even have one of those dinky new Compact Cassette
players.

Anyway, the tapes are there for anyone who wants them. I see that people
sell them on eBay still, but for a couple of pounds each it hardly seems
worth it. I spotted them in a charity shop - they were just about to get
rid of them.

Indeed, as this allows for a bench front seat which facilitates
closeness.

Must be reel to reel. Revox or Tandberg mounted upright in the
bookshelf at head height.

I feel a Revox is more the choice of the dedicated audio enthusiast, and
the Tandberg of the family man. Don't you think an Akai (one with logic
control, not mechanical controls) would be more appropriate for the
bachelor?

I used to have an 8-track cartridge, it was "Diamonds and Rust" by Joan
Baez. There was a bit where tape had been damaged which of course came round
4 times during the playing time of the album. Oh, and one track had been
split across two "quarters" - a bit naff. I copied it to a cassette when my
wife made get rid of the 8-track player. Then I did what I should have done
in the beginning and bought it the CD!

The Akai 4000DS was the standard machine in every self-respecting bachelor
pad in my young day!

I'd forgotten the Akai. That or a Teac would do nicely.

I have a working '8-track' player/recorder and would happily dub it off to
any standard you want. Even Elcassette. ;-)

It's a small sample, and possible self-selecting, but all my friends with
4000DS decks were gay, and those with A77s were very gay.

I wonder what speaker size said about a man....
