For those of you who have (or who have had) vintage radios, what do you think about them? Do you prefer the vintage radios over today's radios? As many of you know I love vintage so you will know my answer to this already. :)
The photo I am sharing in this post is one I took a few years ago in a nature park. You just need to click on the image to see a larger view.

The vintage radio has a better speaker in it that the new ones today. I plug an old one of my dads in while I was clearing his garage and an hour later it came on and the sound was very strong and clear.
ReplyDeleteI have a vintage radio reproduction. The sound isn't very good but I love the looks of it so it's displayed prominently in my home.
ReplyDeleteanything beats today's radios
ReplyDeleteI Believe L.D. is right about the speakers. I hated parting with my old floor model, but the guy who kept it running passed away and I didn't know anyone at that time to repair it.
ReplyDeleteIf it weren't for the line of trees, you would not be able to tell the water from the sky.
ReplyDeleteSpecial, Linda, the video !
ReplyDeleteYour photo, beautiful reflection !
Lie(f)s.
We still have one in our bed room from the 70s !!!!
ReplyDeletethis makes me think of my grandfather's vintage radio (and also his record player/turntable thingy). i'm glad we can now just listen to music conveniently on our phones and computers, but radios still sound the best, ya :D
ReplyDeleteI have two of the reproduction vintage radios. One has a record player, too, that I have started using again, recently. I had forgotten how much I enjoy records!
ReplyDeleteGrowing up, my parents had one of those big console record player/radios. I loved that thing. It quit working, though. I was their late life baby, so my parents were the same age as my friends' grandparents. I'm your age.
Wonderful scenery, Yes, I also I have an old radio.
ReplyDeleteAt my age, Linda, all my radios from my younger years would be called "vintage." :) But I don't think they sound better than today's radios. Different, maybe, but not better. Just like the old 78 rpm records have a different sound that today's CD's.
ReplyDeleteThe photograph is a winner. Looks like a wonderful lake/nature center to visit during the summer!
Thank you all so much for your comments, I really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteHello Linda, Thank you for visiting my blog. I live in Belgium, so far a way from Canada. In witch part of Canada do you live? Is your language English or French?
ReplyDeleteI live in Flanders, we speak Dutch (Flemish) in the other part of our small Belgium people speaks French and on the border with Germany, also German. At school we learn Dutch, French, English, German, but some students learn also Spanish.
I'm born in 1939, before worldwar II. But I remember a lot of that time, from about 2.5 year till the end in 1945.
Your photo's and videos are very nice. I like nature also very much. Now we have a long and cold winter. On 21 of March, normaly SPRING has to start. But as you can see we still have snow and during the night it is freezing. But Canada will be much colder, I think, But beautifull. I saw it already on pictures and in documentaires.
sincerly
