Cool thread. I've heard some good things about old receivers like that - like they have a lot of power b/c old speakers were less efficient.
Man, a turntable with a USB port - that would've been a dream come true for me a few years ago; I wanted to get everything on vinyl, and then put it on my computer to put the songs on CD for the car and stuff. A turntable with USB would've made things a lot easier, and keeps the dream alive.
Oh well, I guess I don't support terrorism, since all my music is 1's and 0's and came over the internet so it doesn't take too much oil!
