Oh yeah I'm aware. To be fair when I was in college (1991-1996) I cared about how loud it was too. Loudness counted, and it needed to be available for cheap. But I also developed a taste for jazz/soul/funk in college and there was one band we followed around to all the local spots. Pretty much a Tower of Power band with some old blues of various artists thrown in. And you never knew when they'd pull out some 1950's rock just for kicks. Even the Sandford & Son theme song was part of the show (but they did a much better job with it than the original version)!That set the foundation. After college I picked up the Scott in 1999 or 2000. Still worked, but needed an update (capacitors, etc). I went back to grad school so I wasn't able to do it right away but it continued to work OK. Finally restored it about 2005 or so. Been great ever since.
I guess I should just use my Victrola (yes, I have a working one) and that's about as low-fi as it gets!
