Epiphany

We had stopped for a coffee in our usual café, when Brian looked up from his cup and said ‘Why don’t we just buy another Crosley’.

For weeks now we’ve been thinking about a new record playing system, as our old one is broken, and every time we come back to look at them we end up looking at something more and more expensive. I’m not sure that is what we want and it’s why we hadn’t made a decision.

‘If we buy a super duper system we might find the sound quality is just too good, and we like the warmth of the one we had, which sounded like something from our childhood, so why don’t we just get another Crosley like the one we had?’.

There was a lot of sense to that, and he followed it up with a few other points that also helped us decide that this was definitely the way to go. When we looked at the new Crosleys we also found they’ve improved them, it’s now possible to play them via Bluetooth through our UE boom speaker as well. So the decision was made, we went online and bought one the same day.

It arrived two days later, and I have to say, it’s everything we wanted. We’re very simple in our needs, we just wanted a record player that gives us the ambience that suits the house, and this lovely little player does just that. We are very happy we can once again enjoy all our old records.
