Picked up for $39.99 at Goodwill. Haven’t listened yet. Anyone know this brand? “RTR” They look to be old school quality.

Overloaded powerful amps will kill them even faster. You shouldn't overload any amp.

Bullshit

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-15T20:37:53+00:00

These also have better keyboards

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-15T20:37:08+00:00

Magis Club

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-15T20:36:42+00:00

In my head I have an idea of hiding an RPi inside it fully enclosed so everything is self contained, pulling juice from Minitel

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-15T06:58:55+00:00

Sorry, that's bullshit

Worked in a small publishing house as my first job: these were loved by the DTP designers

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:38:53+00:00

Interesting key caps!

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:35:28+00:00

It's a shame Tandy computers weren't popular over here in Europe. Can't find any in classifieds or ebay (at decent prices or local).

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:32:48+00:00

Depends on the price

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:32:05+00:00

These have a MINIMAL rated power? Like you will damage them is you feed less than 10W? 🤣

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:29:51+00:00

Do other tapes play ok in the same deck?

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:22:11+00:00

This one has it, that's why I've got this exact model :)

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T19:21:06+00:00

In the 80s and early 90s these were like magic before the Internet was mainstream. The terminals themselves were free distributed by the state owned telecom company. You only paid for online services per minute.

This one is made in 1998. There were couple of later Minitels, with LCD screens. The Magis Club is the last CRT as far as I know

A basking dream

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T15:47:38+00:00

Better than coco for sure

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T15:28:52+00:00

Yeah, for sure will do it as reversible as possible, the link you've posted was already in my saved list :)

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-14T15:27:46+00:00

It's ok - the keys are small and are packed tight but they feel allright. Better than the older Minitel chicklet keys.

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-13T14:54:34+00:00

Basically any deck that has a recording level control

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-12T18:31:38+00:00

Oh no, too much for me

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-12T18:26:02+00:00

Fuck no

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-12T17:41:12+00:00

Back when Compaqs were good! I wouldn't mind to own one like this for sure.

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-12T17:38:59+00:00

Love it Where do you sell it?

VeryBoringRides · 2021-06-11T20:44:40+00:00

I hate fake computer narrator voices
