    Music is the mediator between the spiritual world and the world of the senses”.[La música es la mediadora entre el mundo espiritual y el de los sentidos].

    Ludwig van Beethoven
    German pianist and composer (1770-1827).

    A month where music and musical instruments take center stage, following @mipiano's proposal for this community.
    I have enjoyed reading and seeing pictures of those objects, capable of giving us a sound to our senses, and that having a rhythm and harmonic structure become music.

    Today I share with you more electronic musical instruments, which give us with quality, the result of musical and voice recordings.

    I will focus on audio equipment from the Japanese brand Sony, specifically the black ones.

    CD player and integrated amplifier. ES Series:

    The ES series equipment are exclusive and high end. They are manufactured with electronic components of higher quality, with a metal front, unlike the generality that are made of plastic. All this leads to a high quality sound with low harmonic distortion. They are more robust to dust and humidity.

    The compact disc player used is the model CDP-XA2ES, and as a high power integrated amplifier, the model TA-F444ESX.

    Do you want to listen to all the world's radio stations on one radio?

    Then here is a multiband model from this brand with a great history. The CRF-320 is an excellent radio, very much in demand among collectors and Diexism (DX) enthusiasts, and with a very clear and loud monaural sound.

    It was manufactured in 1976, with a design and materials for military use. It has two long telescopic antennas and capacity to listen to the main bands, being the fundamental one, the AM band and the Single Side Band (SSB) where you can listen to aeronautical communication.

    If a Sony cassette recorder was a favorite of journalists, news analysts and reporters, it was these two models: the TCM-5000 with monaural sound, and the TC-D5M with two-channel stereo output.

    These two portable recorders were the most sought after for their durability and professional use. Today they are highly collectible in the market and vintage audio enthusiasts.

    Another of their portable equipment and the top of the line at the professional level in the 80's, was the WM-D6C. With great features and LED to mark the sound level.
    Personally, I'm more attracted to the earlier models for their more vintage look.

    I left for the end this small recorder from the 70's , the model TC-92 that since my childhood has accompanied me, and used in festive activities with family or friends.

    With this equipment I enjoy my music collection, both in cassettes and compact discs. It is very pleasing to experience, that in spite of the years, those recordings that I made on those magnetic tapes, today continue to sweeten my senses and emotions through their sound quality and the history that surrounds their creators.

    Thanks to those who read me.
