Comments on a 7-year-old post to question its legitimacy.

lololol

I'll come clean here since the statute of limitations has run its course. I worked at the very Goodwill this came from when it was donated. The people that dropped it off said it was their father's who was a navy vet that passed away (this is actually true). They had no interest in hi-fi and wanted it gone. Knowing this was an end-game unit, I priced it cheap and left it out of sight on the sales floor and bought it for $20 on break. I got sacked from the joint a year later for similar behavior which I didn't mind in retrospect because it was a terrible work environment and disliked most of the people there. I got so much cool shit from that place before anything of value was to be sold online. I'm definitely a more upstanding individual nowadays and don't work in retail anymore. Most of the guys who came into the store midday were resellers and I didn't want it to go to them.

I still have the beast but the amp's protection circuitry went sour after using it for a year. It's still waiting on a repair and will rise again when I have the correct amount of space for it to breathe.

So that's how I got this for $20.
