I recabled my stereo today

The local electronics shop had a special on RCA cables, so I could replace the motley assortment of mostly too long and mismatched cables with consistent looking ones that shouldn't break apart in my hand or pop off as easily.

There are some very talented network engineers and electricians out there cringing right now. πŸ˜‚

Don’t worry, this is not a criticism. This looks great compared to my rats nest of wiring. 😁

daw, every installer's house looks similar to this, unless they never EVER make changes.

Mostly Goodwill and Craigslist finds.

JVC JR-S301 receiver (rebuilt) Three tuners (Sansui TU-717, JVC T-X55, and MCS 3050) because they're a cheap source of lights and knobs Sony TC-RX79ES tape deck (belts replaced) Sony DVP-CX860 300-disc changer (not great at feeding discs, I mostly use it as a depository after ripping the discs to FLAC) Onkyo CP-1030F turntable (automatic mode is wonky- it keeps resetting after 3 seconds of play)
