Old casette recorders and a collection of 8-Track tapes. First came the 8-track and it was pretty much immediately replaced by the cassette.

A beautiful SONY reel-to-reel tape recorder. This fits all together. The speakers lock over the reels and there is also room for the mics (just to the left).
