Short story:
I tee'd up a sale of a Perreaux 6200 Power Amp for my mate Barry for $300. (rrp $1500 - $1800, BUT made in1987)
Still a crazy good amp tho' ("some" say even "audiophile quality") which some 'merikans were still paying $900 - $1000 only a couple of years back.
…. but after going to pick it up, I found that the price was revised down to $100 per unit, of which there were two.
At that price I would've grabbed the both of 'em, but circumcises being wot they were, I had to honour the deal, so stoopid Barry walked out with the pair of them with a $100 change.
So we went to the gig to pick up bits and pieces, and to show stoopid Barry wot goes on behind the scenes, and introduce him to wot can be achieved with these new age sound systems.
We were there to hear some of the night but leave early.
Anyway, three songs in, it's hitting around 104dB. Not really loud, but crystal as. So I looked over at Stoopid Barry to see wot he thinks, and the dumb arse c… is playing a Casino Game on his iPhone!
WTF?
All that effort wasted…….
He'll NEVER be one of US.
God must really REALLY hate me…..
Why HIM?
I just don't get it!
