They are Coming.I Can't Hold Them Back Any Longer.

This is my last communication. Outer walls breached. Door is splintering. Hinges giving way. Out of ammo. Just one grenade left. I'll take as many as I can with me. God have mercy on my soul.

The Yamaha CR-2020: A True '70s Blockbuster

There's something magical about the majestic stereo receivers of yesteryear. Apart from being magnificent examples of industrial design, they're dead simple to operate while offering a full complement of features to ensure a great, though decidedly old-school, music listening experience, complete with analog power meters. And then there's nostalgia... I still own (and recently refurbished) my first receiver - an Onkyo TX-2500 I bought for $200 in the mid-70s. It looks and sounds as good as it did back in the day.
