I like vintage audio stuff. I have a Sansui G5500 receiver driiving two cerwin vega speakers. They were bought new around 1976. I had the speakers refoamed, still going good. At one time in the set was a CD player from the early 80's. It's long gone. But I do run my Panasonic RT-909 reel to reel through it. I'm not a vinyl guy though I do have quite a lot of them.

60 watts per channel and it will put out a LOT more than you need/want in a house situation, by a lot.

Yeah Sansui stuff is highly sought after. Nice set up.

After talking to my wife it sounds like we will be moving my BMRs with the new amps to a dedicated HiFi set up.

Cheapest set of small/electronic type screwdrivers harbor freight had. I have a ton of stuff in my shop, but I'm not there right now. Big spender I think I spent <$5. I haven't been in one in maybe 10 years.

if you do a good amount of small electronic work, a precision electric screwdriver is great, get one w/ high torque, i had a basic one for a while and later got a beefy one, i've used it to repair 2 laptops and a few ryobi batteries and it had no issue breaking the screws.

also of course when you have to put stuff back together, it's not so inane w/ 20 tiny screws

I have this set. Probably overkill but I love tools and I use it pretty often for various things.

If you have a particular size you use a lot, these are the shit...

More hats. Yes, I have a problem.

Today I got the Jacksonville Honey Drippers and the Hill City Luchadores (Copa series).

Excited to put them on the wall!
