Too cool. I was expecting Stallone to pop in at some point in the commercial.

Now that I own a pair of HPM's, I have to say, that was cool.

Man, I remember that commercial! I was 12 years old and starting to get a woody for home audio stuff. That guy doing the voice over did a lot of commercials from what I remember.

Super cool! It's amazing how things have changed for the worse. Just try and pick up a speaker as good as the hpm series at your local Best Buy.

I believe that's Burgess Meredith (The Penguin in Batman TV and Mickey the trainer in Rocky.)

That was a neat retro flashback....I found an old original HPM 100 brochure the other day in my closet and it got me thinking about those...

Yup, always loved that commercial!

Guy walks onto the bridge, turns the car stereo off, bridge returns to normal, then the camera
zooms in on the guy and he just shrugs his shoulders and says, "Sorry". :thmbsp:

Here's a collection of crap. Nice Beo and reel to reel though! I think his well water should be checked for traces of toxic chemicals. Please get this man some help.

Based on the front panel meters and number of knobs, either a SX-680 or SX-780.

Probably the beefier SX-780 but hard to tell because of the turntable in front. See which one you think it is here.
