1. Open the lid of the console stereo
Turn it on first so you can plug in the 'phones and fiddle with the turntable while it warms up.

2. No doubt...
I love the big heavy things. Some of the best moments of my life came with those thing on, kicked back on my bed, sometimes *really listening, sometimes just kind of drifting away.

3. I still have my Stax
They'll have to pry them off my cold, dead ears.

6. Those are almost my phones
Mine are Pioneer two-ways that look exactly like that, except the cord isn't coiled. Had 'em for about 35 years.

(I hate coiled cords.)

Great for listening while mowing the lawn, snowblowing, sitting in an airplane, or just kicking back at home.

Tune in, turn on, drop out.

:hi:
edit to add: Damn that's a big picture. Apologies if you use a phone connection.
