    Dropping a Heylo to all here at Stereo2Go.com forums...

    Current Location: Bali, Indonesia

    An OCD (obsessive-compulsive-disfunktional <---- LOL!) by nature pertaining to cassette collecting. I have on hand over 5000 cassettes, with a few triples, doubles, supercalifragilistical multiples here and there.

    I enjoy the analogue experience, hunting down Sony walkmans, Nakamichi Dragons is in process.

    My 1st cassette (if I recall accurately) was either Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction or Motley Crue's Dr. Feelgood album...back in the mid-1980s...

    Well, here you...a little bit about me... :)

    Happy collecting, repairing, hunting and posting guys + gals..

    Ciao for now.

    Greetings ;)

    Wow 5000 cassettes! That's a lot of music right there...

    Well you are in the right place to be as OCD with your tapes as you want, it's all good.

    Welcome to the site and hope we see some pics

    Thanks T-ster... :)

    Yeah I have been following Hugo and his Walkman Archive for quite sometime now...

    Taking the time out to digitally-socialize with you kind folks...

    Lots to learn in the world of compact cassettes and walkmans. :)

    Just bought a bunch of belts and will be trying my hand out at operational-replacements... :)

    I have trouble organizing few hundred cassettes. How do you manage your huge collection of cassettes?

    Hey welcome to S2G! Sounds like an interesting collection you have, I'd love to see how you store that many cassettes!

    Thanks guys...the cassettes are basically all in boxes....most of them are still sealed.

    I buy cassettes but I listen to MP3...LOL!

    Just kidding...but seriously, to explore the fullest of the 5000 cassettes, I think it will take 2 lifetimes?

    Still trying to tweak my walkmans to garner the best sound quality ...

    I will try to get some pictures up really shortly... :)

    Appreciate the warmth, you guys are awesome!!

    Yes, please, would be cool. :)

    I am wondering how many Compact Cassette brands approximately you may have there
    in this enormous stack of tapes? :hmmm
