Was sitting at a big birthday party dinner gathering when one guy asked his brother if he wanted his old stereo as it was "too big" for the new house and his wife wanted a Bose. (Whatever!) Well, I hadn't gotten my girlfriend anything for Christmas yet and so, when brother 2 declined, told brother 1 I might be interested.
Went over to his house and he had these huge Cerwynn Vega sp? speakers, and Yamaha Tuner... and asked me for $75. As I carried them out to the jeep, his wife started loading the rest of the guy's stuff into my car (as it also didn't match the new decor)...so I got a tape deck, stereo rack and all the monster cable speaker wire, too. Well, my girlfriend loved Metallica, and this system was 'made' for Metallica. I set it up in her apartment and it sounded GREAT! (I got laid.)
Turns out, that damn tuner had more power than my system at home and somehow sounded better, hmmmmm....so, that's what started me out on this little audiophile upgrade journey.... ($75k later I'm still growin')
Did I get a good deal, or what!!?
Plus, now I live in fear that I'll die a premature death and one of my nieces will sell my stuff for nothing at a garage sale and you guys will get it!
