It all began a month ago when I was looking for a stereo receiver
for our bedroom. Looked at all etailers web sites for one, Almost
all of the new affordable gear has lousy radio tuners, freq resp
of around 40hz to 20khz. Overblown RMS specs.
Got to thinking I'll check ebay out cautiously for a new receiver...
Got to thinking, Man I wish they still made the nice brushed aluminum fronts with the Blue Radio Displays. I always loved
the Blue Displays since I was a kid. Even blue Christmas lights are
my favorite.
Searched for 2 channel stereo receivers on ebay and Bam!!!
Couldn't believe there is so much of this stuff still available.
Alot of really neat gear in all sorts of condition.... I recently snagged a Pioneer SX-770 in really super condition. So now
I have an Marantz and Pioneer which I both use and really like.
So I figured with the amount of stuff for sale there has got to
be a forum with folks who are into this. Typed in Vintage audio
forum and AudioKarma came up as a result. Been reading here
ever since.
I'm knocked out by the friendliness of the members in their posts
and communication. I'm really knocked out by the knowledge that members have with vintage equipment.
I'm really KNOCKED OUT by the quality and amount of equipment
that alot of you have.. WOW.
Really enjoy this forum.

P.S. Am I alright that now I keep thinking about Vintage Equipment and wanting to buy it? Its almost like an addiction
or game, but I just started to get hooked..... Am I still normal??...... I'll check back later, got to go to the ebay minefield......
