I’ve seen tons of the 700s eBay for $100-150 used or refurbed. Looking to buy one when I get a 4K 55 inch.

I just looked on eBay. A Sony 700 is listed as Seller Refurbished. What the heck is that? I thought refurbished was from the manufacturer. I could box up any of my old crap and call it seller refurbished. What a joke. :)

Sunday-Monday are my days off, was getting stir crazy so took a drive to Newport Beach and PCH (Pacific Coast Highway, or as the locals call it 'Coast Highway') did some shopping at Gelsons and did my bit for the environment. Bought some 'plant based' disposable forks and some 'plant based vegan' hand sanitizer. :cool:

Just got Klipsch RP8000’s a couple days ago. What I noticed they are a big manly looking speakers.
Think Jeep Rubicon with 37’s vs Range Rover. lol
They sound pretty good to me so far and I have been really mixing up the music to Experiment with them. Got the same price as what they were back at end of May too so that closed the deal.

Hooray I finally got the IKEA shelf I need at my goodwill thrift store in mint condition. Only 16 bucks. Raha put in on top of my family’s compact car with a sheet underneath and some thin ropes. Thank goodness I’m only like 5 min away. Hazard lights on all the way. Phew.
I may get another one later on. Need to put my Blu-ray’s there now. Pic cause ya love em.

Very nice and thoughtful of you to mount a speaker solely to play music to your new shelf! :p;);)

I love that boombox. I had it in the kitchen then moved it to the bookshelf to use it more. It’s has amazing SQ for the size. Dang I’ve had it for a long time. I want to replace the rechargeable battery one day.

Seller added a coat of spray paint!

Seriously, many years ago I bought a cage for a Dynaco tube amp that was "seller refurb", and all the a$$ hat did was spray a rusty cage with black spray paint! I got a partial refund, still have the cage stashed somewhere for when I feel like giving it a proper refurb. That was easier than sending it back.

Refoamed 15" Sub with new surround foam. It's ready for another 100,000 miles in my VMPS Tallboy. Cost $30, a bit of scrapping the old off and gluing the new surround on.

Just brought home a single Philharmonic Audio BMR with the curved sides, Cherry finish.
It does not match my others, of course, but the experiment will be worth it. :)
