Does anybody have any first-hand experience with these new cassette players?

One of my daughter's besties lost her dad when she was 5 (fuck cancer) and her mom had to evict her dad's box of cassettes when they moved.

One of the sweetest people I've ever met in the audio world.
It's less cool now, RIP Mark.

I'm so sorry Steve and anyone who knew Dave, for that matter.

I met Dave a couple times as an intern at Electrical in 2006. I had been told he was pretty quiet and stand-offish, but I also knew he was THE GUY that built all the furniture.

I recall sheepishly asking Dave about something while he ...
