What’s Up With My Retro Setup? + Cheap Audiophile Gaming
My zany idea to combine a plasma TV with a CRT into one gaming setup with shared speakers and the screens positioned parallel to each other is taking shape! I talk about this and some of the bargains out there in the world of used audio gear, which most gamers are overlooking. Additionally, I provide a peek at how well a 1080p plasma performs when paired with the RetroTINK-4K Pro for 480p games. My newly acquired old gear: Plasma TV shown is a Panasonic TC-P50ST50, and the soundbar is an Artison Studio 46.
