Radiograms or othe tube (valves) consoles

[Electronic M]

We did have some radio + phono + reel tape consoles, but they were far less common than radio phono consoles. In the late 60s through late 70s audio and TV/audio consoles had 8 track and or cassette and it was more common than reel tape was.
A sizable portion of consumers found reel tape threading too much of a hastle and either didn't see the need to pay for a reel tape deck, or had one but only used the reel tape machine for special occasions like recording baby's first words, or preserving an important radio broadcast. There were music releases on RTR but not many people bought the more expensive tape format release. Most tapes found today were home recorded blanks. A large portion of the smallish subset of consumers that consumers that used tape for music either, dubbed their favorite LPs to tape to preserve the LP, dubbed music off the radio for free, or copied their albums to tape and traded music with their friends.

Some Curtis Mathes consoles had TV, reel tape and the typical radio/phono, there was also an Ampex console that had all that and a reel to reel Video Tape Recorder.
