Would you pay $22 for a little slice of audio history?

[Tour2ma]

I did... :cool:

[shack]

Either you are using Trey's camera or my eyes are getting really bad....What little piece of history have you acquired for such a meager sum?

[dorokusai]

No.

[RuSsMaN]

No part Deux.

Tour seems to be taking pic's with the new Blur-Master 2000 Digital Headache Cam.

Just one of many of Henry Kloss' Advent lines developed to fund his front projection TV vision. Henry was among the first to see the potential impact of Dolby Noise reduction upon the home recording market. For better or for worse, it was the openig salvo in the cassette tape revolution.

Understand the "no's"... piece has no practical value, although it is likely functional. Will be a wall display piece in the 2 ch room, along with several old tone arms, record players (not turntables) and other vintage gear turned memorabilia. If nothing else, they should help break up reflections.

I like your idea of hanging non-functioning audio gear on the wall as display items in a dedicated 2 ch room. I ran the idea and she pronounced me (and thus by association you) a dork. Just so you know.

[Tour2ma]

:D :D :D

I resemble that remark...

[woodyjacobs]

I did actually mean "I ran that idea by my wife"... but I guess you figured out the gist. Just FYI in case you thought I meant that I ran it by my mom, my dog etc...

Rock on.

The Mrs. dedicated me to being a shmuck when I asked to this same thing, which is lower, shmuck or dork!!:rolleyes:

[steveinaz]

My wife calls me the "audio-geek" I think thats below both schmuck and dork. :D

[Tour2ma]

All terms mentioned are in the same area code...

For those who wouldn't pay $22, how 'bout $53.30? :D

[RuSsMaN]

Now THAT is a cool piece.

Better not 'show off' too much man, certain folks might start giving you a little competition.

Cheers,

ME... Show off???

Wykalinas, RuSsSan...

Interesting eBAY moniker... guess you're a Townshend fan, eh?

[Tour2ma]

mh,
My usual one (an old CB "handle") was taken when I registered and "that Who song" just happened to be spinnin' at the time... and the rest is history...

[amulford]

Texas...CB....Bullhorns????:p

[Tour2ma]

"Gracious sakes alive... Looks like we got us a convoy..."

[mhardy6647]

My former CB handle would seem somewhat politically incorrect at this late date (especially now that I live in Massachusetts).
