I was 4 years old, listening to a record on headphones connected to this rig. Leaned too far back, and caught the 1/4 inch input jack on the headphones right in my fucking eyeball.

    We had one of the giant console things but it was just a radio tuner and turntable. The radio tuner had short wave in addition to Am and FM which was pretty cool at the time. One of my uncle’s was more into hifi back then had a reel to reel machine which was rare then and really rare now.

      Hell, I still think that is pretty damn cool.
