I gave a relative a Sansui 8080, Akai RTR all my LP's and 2 turntables, a Teac and Yamaha. I have given away many other thing but that was just stupid. . WOW -----the Sansui 8080 was tube sound quality in an SS amp- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete H Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Way too many things, but a couple that come to mind: A bunch of SABA and Revox gear 69 SS Chevelle Loads of vinyl @dtel I have an 8080DB, I know that one still hurts. It's never leaving my possession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 In 1974 I sold a 1961 Dodge Dart slant six sedan, think taxicab, for $125. It was rust free and ran like a top. Heck, it probably still runs like a top. Even in 1974 that was a give away price. I was young and foolish. The low mileage car had been given to me by a great aunt. I'd just started a new teaching/coaching job, so the new Olds 442 I bought fit my perceived image better than an old woman's car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Gave my BIL a 1951 Martin D-18. He still has it and would probably give it back if I asked. Miss it sometimes... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Sold my 1963 Martin D-28 to my best friend (in early '70s... he was offered $5k cash by a guy at the Martin factory). He finally sold it just a couple years ago...had hoped to get it back from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio Flynn Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 1984 Mustang GT naturally aspirated, Jack Roush modified. Did not work with two baby seats. H H Scott LK-48 to buy the VRD. Thought I would find a Scott preamp to go with my Scott 208 power amp. A bunch of near misses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco-d-gama Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 A 1972 Cougar convertible, white on white with leather interior. Could not afford to get the timing belt replaced and let her go. She was sexy and quite the gas guzzler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Wuzzer, those were Altec Model 19's which were nice but my 604s i liked better for my type of listening. Ive have Jubs now so all should be good.... But i sure had alot of fun with those 604s.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
