RCA - RCA Nostalgic Stereo

The RCA Nostalgic Stereo is available for purchase from that discount retailer, Nieman-Marcus.

RCA Nostalgic Stereo. Ugh. Stereo.

Our brief, daily perusal of Gizmodo alerted us to this new model from RCA. We are not entirely sure what we think of it, but we note the Ornamental metal horn and hand crank with sadness at their delegation to ornamentation. We note with some joy that we can play our 78s upon this device, even though we are unaware of any 78-RPM records available in stereo.

    I’d much rather have this three-in-one. Not only does it also play 78rpm records, but none of its bits are purely “ornamental”.

    Ugh. It has buttons. And a (shudder) digital display.
