| Product DescriptionGrowing up in the 50's was a lot of fun. Swing was evolving to something a little edgier called Rock 'n Roll. Buddy Holly and Elvis ruled the lives of young Americans. My parents had this beautiful, wood record-player and radio combination a whole lot like the TEAC Nostalgia GF-680, and when my friends came over we grooved endlessly to our favorite "licorice platters" and Rock radio stations!

Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2007-12-28      Fine if you get one that works/This one works perfectly. Follow-up: This one works perfectly. Would like the ability to control bass/treble independently rather than presets for sound patterns.
I purchased one of these 2 years ago and had to return it as the tapes didn't work. I purchased a second one and the tape player worked for about a dozen go rounds. The device then developed other intermitent problems. Not possible to have such thing repaired locally and the cost of shipping it back to Sony in CA along with repair costs are prohibitive so it's in the basement awaiting the next bulk trash pickup.
All this said I guess I will buy another one because it does serve it's purpose. I just hope the next one last more than two years.
|  | Reviewed on 2007-04-01      Good for the price The Teac GF-680 is good for the price. However a model with seperate bass and treble controls would fit the bill. A upgrade model would give it 5 stars. |  | Reviewed on 2007-02-18      Teac GF-680 Meets my expectations - good price performer Very satisfied with the Teac GF-680 ... it's easy to operate and has superb sound. One minor problem is that the cassette function symbols are difficult to read because of their location. |  | Reviewed on 2007-01-19      Nostalgic style stereo This stereo is great for anyone with a vintage style decor. Everything works really well, although I will probably add some very small external speakers to project the sound a little better. Also, the controls on the front are hard to read. You need to crouch down and use a flashlight if it's in a dark corner of a room. The plus is that it comes with a remote, but I chose to memorize the controls. But for anyone that doesn't want a modern stereo sticking out like a sore thumb amongst their antiques and collectables, the small hassle is well worth it. |  | Reviewed on 2007-01-16      Looks good and sounds great Looks good and sounds great. Perfect for the 40+years person who no longers needs the big component stereo to blast their music throughout the neighborhood and just wants to listen to their music and match a non-hi-tec decor. |  |
