Why 70's stereos rocked and 80''s stereos sucked [View all]

[orangecrush]

I own two 70's Realistic receivers, an STA 200 and an STA 90, 30 and 45 WPC respectively

Both require two hands and a grunt to pick them up.

I've had 80's gear that you could lift with 2 fingers, and the sound was awful, despite the advertised specs being better than my Realistics.

I always wondered why - this confirms it.

The 80's stereos sucked.

Get off my lawn, Yuppies.

Greed is not good.

It makes shit stereos, music and people.

MWAHAHAHA!

* Note - I am talking about average consumer gear, not some high end product from the 80's that cost more than a car. I am talking value for the dollar.
