Back in 78 I bought A Sansui & some monster Technics. Loved em. Moved to smaller house in 86, bought a Carver & a set of bose cubes/w sub. Must have been nuts because I ended up with 3 sets.
I read about Axioms & bought a set of M80s about 6 yrs ago. Wow.
Them came the EP500 , QS8s & Vp150. I tried to give all the bose away but my buddies said they didn't make good boat anchors.
All went to the dumpster.
