Oh boy, 40 year-old electrolytic capacitors in mid-fi junk that I wouldn't have considered even when it was new.
He keeps invoking "audiophile" as if that would legitimize this stuff.
There is a good reason it's piled in an abandoned warehouse.

I had the same response five years ago when this story broke the first time. Who would want that midfi crap? I guess somebody did.
Thanks I did need that laugh!!!!
I was thinking the same exact thing when he kept talking about audiophile and standing next to a stack of JVC DVD players and those Pioneer SX digital tuner receivers - Yikes!!!
The gems were in the repair and service areas. And he BLEW past those!!!
So I guess that's a foolproof test to check for foam rot...just
shine a flashlight on 'em!!!. Not!!!.
