I was 4 years old, listening to a record on headphones connected to this rig. Leaned too far back, and caught the 1/4 inch input jack on the headphones right in my fucking eyeball.

The coolest thing ever was when those old receivers had a motorized volume knob that would move when you used the remote. I'm a simple man, but that always made me happy.
You just unlocked an ancient memory in me
they must still do that? i have a denon receiver thats maybe 7 years old that turns when you change volume
My Onkyo solved it by removing the marking on the volume knob.
