This reminds me of work, as time wore on there were only two of us left from our hiring group.

I once had a qrx-3500 with a bunch of blown fuses, I put new ones in and it works fine over a decade later

Dave, glad to see you’re up and kicking. I haven’t been around in any sense of regularity in a long long time. My grandfather who just recently passed away always said it was a good day because he woke up in the morning. As you get older those types of things make more sense. He was a guy who...

I go all the way back to 2003 here, college days, thrifting exploits. Got a young daughter now who is kinda getting into music so while I never really stopped been picking up steam once again.

I thrifted constantly. My $20 Marantz Esotec SM-7 was found the same day I hit the store earlier, in a storm, after work. If I recall morning class was cancelled, I went to work, and went thrifting after anyway in lake effect snow.

Enjoying this album lately but you have to be a fan of symphonic metal

I’m the odd double J&J for a variety of reasons though 5 months between doses and right before Delta and right before Omicron. Mild cold like symptoms for 3 days with he first, felt slightly off after the second for about a day. Due to timing kinda waiting to see if they’ll do updated boosters.

Housing prices here continue the climb you have to go further and further out for a deal. Bought my house back in 2009 and paid off last year. Zillow estimate is up like $20k again this month. Was surfing listings today cause I’d like to get a small cabin or something to take an occasional week...

Assembled this setup for my little work area since about February for when I’m working on computers and such. Primarily listen to headphones with it.

since you resurrected this old post… pricing on the 1060 has gone through the roof, I bought one new old stock minus instructions for $100 at one point. The 1060 is better built and more powerful but the 1058 is still a decent receiver. One way to look at it is the 1058 doesn’t stand out in its...

I get tons of requests for this. This is the best I can get for now as I have the manual with some files at my parents house. They just had their Covid shots so I might be able to go get it in the near future. Hopefully it holds everyone over until then. https://imgur.com/a/lUYJ0EP

I haven’t run into one in years but they must still be out there since I saw a projector and pair of speakers in the past month listed for sale.

I actually took photos of the copy of the manual that I have the other day but I don’t have a working scanner to scan it properly. If you want them drop me an email

I took pics of the project one mark 1500 manual send me a message or I'll see if I can post them

This seems to stem from lack of use more than anything. I've had a few like this eventually correct themselves after enough playthroughs after cleaning, lube and belt.

Ultimate Electronics had a laservue Mitsubishi rear projection before they closed here. It seems like it would be a viable technology picture wise but was and probably still is just too expensive.

Nice player. I started in 2005 or 2006. Most of what I have was two collections one donated to Salvation Army and the other to goodwill with a few 10-15 disc finds since then.

They’re still out there. Just not found as often.

Were hard to find as it was and since I last posted on this I’ve maybe added 500 more. Really only buy them because of the cheap thrift store pricing though.

The Kenwood 1090VR Home theater receiver is FTC rated at 150wpc at .03%THD in stereo mode if I recall. As far as whoever mentioned Pyle, I dunno if any of their receivers actually hit 200wpc but some of the power amps actually do. I have a Pyramid one that does 225wpc rms but let’s just say the...

I did a garbage picked gateway plasma a few years ago and just used whatever the cheapest chinese caps I could find were. I think you’re supposed to use low ESR caps on the PSU.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes even though I’m a month late in responding!
