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!

I got this after my last super cheap precision screw driver set broke. Seems worth the money so far.

That's the other German screwdriver company. Good stuff.

For regular sized screws where you just want something to stick in your car or your junk drawer or whatever, I like these, made in Canada. Really good quality bits in a convenient package.

I have all that stuff with an oscilliscope at my house. But I was at my parents house doing something for them. It will stay here when I go home. Harbor Freight smelled like cosmoline still. Imagine that lol.

I prefer individual screwdrivers than something with a bit. Lot easier to work with for me and allows you to get into really tight places.
