@@Jerry_Freestylehe was probably happy to have caught that on camera, before realizing that it sucks balls and there is a reason we moved away from tapes
14:53 the tape being pulled out of the cassette by the boombox is a result of the rubber wheel that helps guide the tape from one reel to the other getting all old and gooey. rip.
I miss the old Sony cabinets with the tinted glass door that locked with a magnet. Those old 4 piece vertical tower shelves that had separate units for AM/FM Radio Receiver, Tape Deck, 5 Disc CD Changer/Player and Tuner that came with 2 tall box speakers at the minimum, Dolby Surround Sound optional and extra $$$, all for the affordable price of $989.99 US in 1991 which is like a billion dollars adjusted for current inflation.

@@mainlinemitch And don’t forget that cool LCD display with the moving audio bars if you had a really premium model! 😜 (I inherited my Dad’s.

fun fact: that drift between the 2 decks combined is how the "flanger" effect could done in analog recording studios back in the day you record your audio you wish to apply the effect to to one tape. now, play it twice into a tape recorder, once normally, and once while applying slight pressure to the flange of the tape reel, causing it to slow down slightly. this creates the effect you hear from the audio drifting in and out of phase. this is the same thing that causes your bass to dissapear if you dont beatmatch well DJing.

@@grizzlydino iirc the problem is the chip in the GC component cable hasn't been reverse engineered/can't be. That's what makes it nigh impossible to make aftermarket cables for Gamecube.
The cooked iPod is exactly why you should mark your ports so they're distinctly identifiable; whether it's chemical plumbing or electrical wiring, wrong-porting can have disastrous consequences.
@@surestar74 very true, genuinely it is often more important to have fun experimenting with things than to never break things, how else will you learn how to fix things and deal with problems
1:16 You'd actually be surprised, when I worked at cashies we sold more left handed clubs than we did normal ones! We'd constantly have people asking about them too
My dad was a leftie. Left handed sports equipment is SO expensive because not a lot of people are buying it (compared to right handed, at least). People are always trying to find it secondhand if they can because it’s so damn hard to find without paying your arm and leg (hmmm, left or right arm and leg? 😂).
I do everything sports wise lefty and I totally get it actually. Lefty stuff is a pain in the ass to find, and when you find it, it's marked up since they realize most people would rather drop too much money on a club than change hands entirely.
Fun fact: On the topic of cassettes and tape types, EMI manufactured their own tape which for some reason lasted way longer than normal tape types. Apparently, when they do remixes and or remasters at Abbey Road Studios (Formally known as EMI Recording Studios), that involve tape, such as the 50th Anniversary Edition of Sgt. Peppers by The Beatles, they didn't need to bake any of the master tapes before playing them because they didn't have any moisture build up due to the formula that EMI used for their tape. I say master tapes because they had to bounce tracks down to multiple reels of tape since they only had 4-track in Abbey Road Studios in 1967.
1:29 It's an autoharp. Those colourful buttons mute certain strings so you can strum the whole lot of strings and only get the chord corresponding to that button.
1:25 that's an autoharp, they were in nearly every american classroom for a while. Each button mutes the appropriate strings for chords, and you strum the whole thing
We still have one! Could do with some new strings and felt pads, but it still plays alright! Doesn't have as many chords as the one in the video, though. Only a 2 row
Hubby’s family is extremely musical, so they had one (and now it’s his and he plays it at Renfaires for fun since it’s easier to take along than stuff that need tuning and careful carrying around). They also got really popular in Japan in the 70’s- his is about that old!
I brought an underseat sub woofer from my local cashies. It didn't work, pulled it apart and saw everything inside was fried, took it back and got a refund. 2 months later in the next town over, there was the same subwoofer in their cashies, you could see the screw driver marks on it where I had levered it open. Cashies had just sent to the next store for the next sucker.
That exact ViewSonic monitor is what I grew up gaming on circa 2012-2013. I used that monitor all the way up until 2022 when I upgraded to a 144hz panel. Seeing it in this video is so nostalgic, thank you.
I'm glad you're giving cassettes some love. There are bands still releasing music on tape, and I still adore them. My dad actually had a tape of random music from Australia on tape that I still jam from time to time; super cozy.
@@mrbisshieNot always! I have a DVI-D to HDMI wire and I was surprised when my monitor's speakers started working! Unless you meant no sound on his device, then I just look silly
A fun addon: The DP-DVI adapter is also passive due to DP++/dual-mode which lets DP output native HDMI/DVI signaling if given the right passive adapter. Most full-sized DP 1.1 and newer support this on modern systems, the only major limitation is that you only get up to single-link DVI or HDMI 1.4 resolutions. 1920x1200 over DVI or 4k30 over HDMI still covers a majority of use cases though, especially for a secondary or budget display option!

FYI, that instrument with all the strings is an Autoharp. I kind of wonder if the StreamPod would still work with a sound dock (i.e., line-level audio out the 30-pin port).
I almost forgot about the line output from 30-pin! I used to have a cable (not a dock) that adapt 30-pin to 3.5mm, and I hooked it up to a headphone amp so I could use my DT 770 at my desk.

Man, your pawn shops are amazing. Our thrift stores are all just clothes. 1:26 That’s an autoharp. You press the buttons and it plays chords when you strum it.

Even just seeing the POWER BLASTER button and the weird green light in the CD tray made me nostalgic. It's been nearly a decade since I last saw it, so I have to wonder if it's still kicking all these years later...
1:44 THEY'VE GOT A CASHIE AT THE CASHIES!!!!! I can't wait to listen to that distorted Scarlet Fire from the boombox through my DT770s. That's gotta sound epic.
Any cash converters I've ever dared walked into has been a pit of despair selling only battered looking electric guitars, scratched TVs with made up brand names I've never heard of and 'party' music systems
The instument at 1:26 is called a Kanun. It is an Arabic instrument that is really common in Old Turkish Folk Music, Arabic Traditional Music, North African Music and West Africa. And it later on made appearances in Asia due to the Arabic Immigration Period. It has a really nice and relaxing tone to it. On the opposite end of the Pegs from what i know you have little pegs that allow you to pull the strings at a microtonal level. Middle Eastern, Turkish traditional music uses a lot of Microtonal stuff. Its cool if u ask me. And probably some Turkish or Arabic guy left it there after trying to learn. From what im seeing it also has a Trainer thingy on it that would most likely allow you to play chords or specific notes.
Its a chromaharp, very similar imo. The pegs are indeed to play chords as they muffle the sound of the strings that dont belong to them. I have one myself but not with that many strings. Its a really cool instrument!
@@lVlegabyte Yes, it's the same thing! Chromaharp is just a different name for it. Mine has the exact same sticker where it reads chromaharp tokai gakki so I dont know if the name is just as branding from that company.
Fun fact HDMI-1 is basically a smaller DVI connector, because the newest DVI standard at the time was common and supported 1080p. The logic behind this is for easy adaptability and because it was a well understood standard.
That Yamaha Electone box just unlocked a memory for me. Had that box with the organ it was sold with back in the late 90s/early 00s. It's where I first learned the play keys until the electricals started going bad. Wild seeing it again
The Dreamcast has a native VGA cable. In fact it is compatible with every game even though some games check for a regular composite cable and refuse to start. I put a switch on my VGA cable to make it go between Composite and VGA. You keep it on AV until it does the check, then switch it to VGA and it works just fine. It's only 480p, but if you have a real monitor it looks amazing. That's CRT for you, makes everything look pretty.
The thing with too many strings is an autoharp. You press the buttons and it makes chords for you and you just have to strum it. It’s really easy to play and a lot of fun.
Ah, Borklord brings back my experiences with Pokemon games as a kid. Focus EVERYTHING into my starter, and the rest of my party was just cannon fodder while I used revives to bring back my boi.
I remember when I went to Australia for a few weeks I had seen your channel for years and I loved it so when I got there a cashies was definitely on my list, thanks for making amazing content man
as someone who is quite into boomboxes i'm appaled at the state of prices around the world. fortunately where i live a lot of people still dismiss old boomboxes as junk so I can often get some really good ones for cheap, ones that DON'T eat tapes, and adjusting the tape speed can also be a breeze if there is an access hole from the back or the front of one. if they are broken, i fix them and they are good to go.
Man going through public school band in Southern California I was a massive Parade band dork. We really go hard in the paint competing parades down here it’s a whole thing. I always live hearing you play anchors away for these. I’ve heard other old marches as well but it always brings a smile to my face as a band nerd and music teacher!
unfortunate that you broke the drum stream ipod, but i was kinda wondering what you happen if you plugged an input into the output. very interesting result! R.I.P. drum stream ipod
I have a few 80s ghetto blasters too - the. Big Hitachis and Panasonics, those you picked up are beautiful - especially the Sharp. Gotta love the massive graphic equaliser. I’ve also got that exact Panasonic Power Blaster and it’s bigger Cobra brother with the motorised pop up screen! They’re so damn cool! When the two tapes playing Scarlet Fire went out of sync it sounded like you were playing it in a basketball court lol. Awesome video
I love how much better "Cashies" sounds than sayjng "Pawn Shop". The best us Americans could come up with was some slang, calling them "The Hock". Im importing the law of referring to them as "Cashies" to the USA and i hope and pray for the sake of speech and language that it catches on. 🙏
I saw those very same golf clubs when I last visited the Port Cashies a year ago. Feels weird seeing them on here again. I can also proudly say I fondled the EQ sliders on that Sharp ghetto blaster, it was great fun.
4:12 I had those speakers like 15 years ago and I've used them until the crappy cable stopped sending signal to one of em so I had to throw them away. It's nice to see them again here on your channel! Now they're classified nuggets 😂😂😂
So lets get on down to Cashie’s, *MATE* Every time I see these videos, reminds me of watching them 4 years ago at work the second they came out Keep them up Wade ❤
Cassette player collecting tip: if you are looking for deck quality, a single deck is almost always going to be better than a double deck because they are more likely to have invested in one good one than two good ones, and it's not uncommon to have the two decks desync like that. Plus it's twice the fiddly belts to buy and upkeep. Obviously the with the boombox there's some solid style points but if you are looking to actually get the most out of your cassettes, single tape decks tend to be better. Who is copying tape to tape now anyways? I genuinely like the sound of a cassette and they are fun to make but you do get extra noise most tape-to-tape and you are better off using a different source like vinyl, CD, or high quality digital. Or hell sometimes I record my Spotify playlists to some ferrics because they can't go am delist the song from my tapes in the event of IP shennagins.
5:01 This makes me feel much better since my phone just went kaput today. I'm gonna have it sent in for an autopsy tomorrow. (couldn't even open it to re-seat the battery, thanks Smasnug.) At least I pulled out the SIM and SD cards.
Start the gizmos, get the the nuggets filled up, grab your self a sausage roll (don't forget them sausage roll farts) and go to the nearest Cashies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to listen to that distorted Scarlet Fire from the boombox through my DT770s. That's gotta sound epic.
2:44 'Its like I'm actually there!' 😂
Cheers from Adelaide, long time fan. Your shit gets better and better, keep up the vids an dank tunes 👍
13:08 LMAO i was expecting the HD600s on the weird ears to show up during that comparison
14:10 sounds like every electronics shop with all the tvs playing the same thing at the same time
watching you go into an iPod to fix stuff feels like OG DankPods again, and I love it
Any cash converters I've ever dared walked into has been a pit of despair selling only battered looking electric guitars, scratched TVs with made up brand names I've never heard of and 'party' music systems

The instument at 1:26 is called a Kanun. It is an Arabic instrument that is really common in Old Turkish Folk Music, Arabic Traditional Music, North African Music and West Africa. And it later on made appearances in Asia due to the Arabic Immigration Period. It has a really nice and relaxing tone to it. On the opposite end of the Pegs from what i know you have little pegs that allow you to pull the strings at a microtonal level. Middle Eastern, Turkish traditional music uses a lot of Microtonal stuff. Its cool if u ask me. And probably some Turkish or Arabic guy left it there after trying to learn. From what im seeing it also has a Trainer thingy on it that would most likely allow you to play chords or specific notes.
Its a chromaharp, very similar imo. The pegs are indeed to play chords as they muffle the sound of the strings that dont belong to them. I have one myself but not with that many strings. Its a really cool instrument!
I wonder if those are related to an autoharp - which I assumed what was that instrument.
It made me think of a kantele first, but thats probably wrong
@@lVlegabyte Yes, it's the same thing! Chromaharp is just a different name for it. Mine has the exact same sticker where it reads chromaharp tokai gakki so I dont know if the name is just as branding from that company.
A shame there’s no sign next to it saying “No Stairway to Heaven” (for the young’uns, ask your parents about Wayne’s World).
14:55 Dude you made me cry with laughter, blowing up your ipod then this? earned a sub from me 🤣
Fun fact HDMI-1 is basically a smaller DVI connector, because the newest DVI standard at the time was common and supported 1080p.
The logic behind this is for easy adaptability and because it was a well understood standard.
DVI to HDMI cables give a lot of sync problems on new monitors though.
And first lcd 144 Hz monitors worked only through DVI, DVI had more bandwidth that first iteration of HDMI)
Woo! Techmoan! I really like his videos, they're very calm and interesting!
That Yamaha Electone box just unlocked a memory for me. Had that box with the organ it was sold with back in the late 90s/early 00s. It's where I first learned the play keys until the electricals started going bad. Wild seeing it again
Cashies is where your dreams come true!
🤓 Actually it's where you CAN FIND your dreams
My dreams are dead, there are no cashies within like 200km of me anymore
It’s like a garage sale with dedicated business hours.
@@AfferbeckBeats for me within a 16000 km
@@AfferbeckBeats Sorry to hear :( there are NO Cashies WHATSOEVER in my country
The Dreamcast has a native VGA cable. In fact it is compatible with every game even though some games check for a regular composite cable and refuse to start. I put a switch on my VGA cable to make it go between Composite and VGA. You keep it on AV until it does the check, then switch it to VGA and it works just fine. It's only 480p, but if you have a real monitor it looks amazing. That's CRT for you, makes everything look pretty.
The thing with too many strings is an autoharp. You press the buttons and it makes chords for you and you just have to strum it. It’s really easy to play and a lot of fun.
I wish I could be this happy about things. Wade is like a kid in a candy store no matter where he goes, and I'm honestly jealous.
1:50 I guess Garrosh (or maybe Grommash) Hellscream was short on some cash and had to sell his Axe, Gorehowl
I knew I recognized that axe! 😂
Ah, Borklord brings back my experiences with Pokemon games as a kid. Focus EVERYTHING into my starter, and the rest of my party was just cannon fodder while I used revives to bring back my boi.
Did that in FireRed with my charizard... Loralei was an impassible wall lmdo
I remember when I went to Australia for a few weeks I had seen your channel for years and I loved it so when I got there a cashies was definitely on my list, thanks for making amazing content man
This is by far the best cashies ever! Love these videos
ooooh that fancy pole really tempted me mate, thats a fancy pole that is! (wonder how crap the telephone is)

as someone who is quite into boomboxes i'm appaled at the state of prices around the world. fortunately where i live a lot of people still dismiss old boomboxes as junk so I can often get some really good ones for cheap, ones that DON'T eat tapes, and adjusting the tape speed can also be a breeze if there is an access hole from the back or the front of one. if they are broken, i fix them and they are good to go.
Man going through public school band in Southern California I was a massive Parade band dork. We really go hard in the paint competing parades down here it’s a whole thing. I always live hearing you play anchors away for these. I’ve heard other old marches as well but it always brings a smile to my face as a band nerd and music teacher!
unfortunate that you broke the drum stream ipod, but i was kinda wondering what you happen if you plugged an input into the output. very interesting result! R.I.P. drum stream ipod
the battle axe is a Warcraft Gorehowl replica, that's awesome, it was Grommash Hellscreams axe
they aren't cheap either. 280 freedom bucks on amazon
i bet you have women chasing you all the time
14:45 peak nostalgia! 🥰😱😭🤬
What even is that SOAD song? It sounds like a banger like chop suey
@@Bloxxers_rclNotAClanner The song is called Sugar, which is from their 1998 self-titled debut album. Hope this helps.
13:40 the lad accidentally reinvents phase music
I have a few 80s ghetto blasters too - the. Big Hitachis and Panasonics, those you picked up are beautiful - especially the Sharp. Gotta love the massive graphic equaliser. I’ve also got that exact Panasonic Power Blaster and it’s bigger Cobra brother with the motorised pop up screen! They’re so damn cool! When the two tapes playing Scarlet Fire went out of sync it sounded like you were playing it in a basketball court lol. Awesome video
8:46 Double A’s? What happened to “AA!!!”s???
i guess he forgor
"Tony Bork's Poop Shooter 2" killed me lmao
14:50 NOOOOOO!! NOT THE S.O.A.D CASSETTE!!
Press F To Pay Respects
I love how much better "Cashies" sounds than sayjng "Pawn Shop". The best us Americans could come up with was some slang, calling them "The Hock". Im importing the law of referring to them as "Cashies" to the USA and i hope and pray for the sake of speech and language that it catches on. 🙏

Love all the cassette-related stuff in your videos ❤
YES CASHIES
I saw those very same golf clubs when I last visited the Port Cashies a year ago. Feels weird seeing them on here again. I can also proudly say I fondled the EQ sliders on that Sharp ghetto blaster, it was great fun.
I feel your pain 15:00 . I have done the exact same thing so many times, you just can't trust old cassette players! THEY ARE EVIL!
3:02 playstation with controller in latex cant hurt you:
11:12 Irish exam flashbacks from the 80s to mid 2010s man holy shit
THATS WHAT THAT RADIO BOOMBOX IS
There are 3 certainties in life. Death, Taxes and A Dope Dingus DankPods Cashies Special 🗣👌🦅
12:27 great find, everything sounds warmer and open
4:12 I had those speakers like 15 years ago and I've used them until the crappy cable stopped sending signal to one of em so I had to throw them away. It's nice to see them again here on your channel! Now they're classified nuggets 😂😂😂
12:09 actually a really neat mechanism! I still have my old Sony Boombox, everything but the CD player works 😂
2:50 I've got exactly that setup and that princetag is basically what It'd cost you if you buy it new
So lets get on down to Cashie’s, *MATE*
Every time I see these videos, reminds me of watching them 4 years ago at work the second they came out
Keep them up Wade ❤
Same I also really love them when he released cashie's video it just fun to watch
@@SayuArianaThey’re one of my fave types of videos he makes, but all of them are good, but these he’s been doing since the beginning
THAT WAS 4 YEARS AGO?!?! I’m old now I guess :(
Cassette player collecting tip: if you are looking for deck quality, a single deck is almost always going to be better than a double deck because they are more likely to have invested in one good one than two good ones, and it's not uncommon to have the two decks desync like that. Plus it's twice the fiddly belts to buy and upkeep. Obviously the with the boombox there's some solid style points but if you are looking to actually get the most out of your cassettes, single tape decks tend to be better. Who is copying tape to tape now anyways? I genuinely like the sound of a cassette and they are fun to make but you do get extra noise most tape-to-tape and you are better off using a different source like vinyl, CD, or high quality digital. Or hell sometimes I record my Spotify playlists to some ferrics because they can't go am delist the song from my tapes in the event of IP shennagins.
Hooray new cashies special! Dank i love your videos, you're the best
5:01 This makes me feel much better since my phone just went kaput today. I'm gonna have it sent in for an autopsy tomorrow. (couldn't even open it to re-seat the battery, thanks Smasnug.) At least I pulled out the SIM and SD cards.
not Samsung fault. apple did it first
14:30 it sounded like scarlet fire in a long pipe
That's the best intro I've ever heard SON OF A GRUMBLESTICK
Start the gizmos, get the the nuggets filled up, grab your self a sausage roll (don't forget them sausage roll farts) and go to the nearest Cashies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dank thank you for what you do i am 11 years old and whenever I cried i would watch your vids and it cheered me up straight away so thank you for everything
5:23 good thing you used to he the ipod repairman haha
Ok I should have waited 5 seconds
