A little money? You're gonna make a killing on that stuff. Nice score.

[@lesberdine4892]

thisisunreal1 needs to make a killing running a business is extremely hard! All the costs taxes etc rediculous

[@1972myc]

just got a Marantz Receiver from the 70's for free, guy thought it did not work, plugged it in, everything works, only a few burnt out bulbs.

[@jeanclaudevandam4974]

That conrad johnson you zoomed in on will make more than half your money back or more. lol. Jealous for sure. NIce job

[@deadbugdoug]

Sweet. Somebodys going to be busy testing all that stuff. The reel to reels will probably need a little work.

[@hippydippy]

WOW! Killer Score. As you said, those Klipsch speakers are worth the price of admission in themselves. Wish I could run into a deal like that! Makes one wonder what the owner's stereo setup is like now? You said he didn't want to sell his Mcintosh, but what else does he use? Super Cool.

[@stevemitchell2252]

looks like mostly 70s and early 80s. solid state stuff..now a real score would be to find some vintage tube amplifiers and receivers..and speakers from the 50s and 60s.. like Fisher... McIntosh tube amplifiers... old Kenwood and Sansui tube receiver amplifiers...

[@craneoperator4]

awesome Klipsch with the horns

[@claywinn32]

Sold a set of Klipsch with the horns like that 3 years ago locally that needed new crossovers and wiring for $1800,all I had in them was time. loading them up and hauling them.

[@cincinnatipicker]

Wow! What a haul! You guys are gonna make a killing on that stuff! Thanks for sharing!

[@silverhairstacker8664]

In the 1970s and 1980s my generation after the house and car would buy stereo equipment like that! Gotta remember pre-video game home entertainment. My choice of stuff was Denon and I still use the speakers! Thanks for showing Pete, and yes, very nice haul of great stereo equipment that still sounds as good or better than what you can buy now for the same dollars!

[@kennethhouston4838]

The seller was smart to hold on to his Mac amps. My dad used to have a bunch of the tube amps. Those are now worth a lot of money.Thanks for the video.

[@risingsun3907]

Wanted to thank you for your videos and great knowledge you freely share. Has been a lot of help to me.

[@SuperVincenot]

Cool stuff. Do a recap in the future

[@Anth4044]

WOW!!!! WHAT A SCORE💯👏😁👍🔊🔊🔊🔊

[@greasytony9727]

Maybe make $5k net on everything. Super score, super stoked. Ya gotta pay to play. Nice job.

[@pu1ypj]

ONLY 2200 on this stuff? WHAT A FUCKING DEAL! That's real!

[@jbartlett3357]

Can you do a video on all the stuff you picked up? Not an in-depth but something that shows each piece. I love this stuff!

[@thriftyflipside5275]

Just imagine how that vintage surround set up would sound in your new home..... Just messing with you Pete, GREAT SCORE guys. I love that stuff.

[@vetterfellow]

Nice deal Guys. Good deals are few and far between. Let the money machine roll. TTFN...Angelo.

[@ThriftyTreasures]

Wow, great haul! Big money :)

[@streetstylefinds]

wow! amazing haul, good for you guys

[@micglobal]

Please make a video demonstrating those large Klipsch horns being driven by a good amp. Nice score.

[@thepicker9079]

Wow Pete thats a huge score man, Some really nice equipment you purchased. Nice find. You are dead on price wise for that set of speakers, I had two horns and got 1800 local buyer came and picked them up and they were in rough shape so i honestly think 3K for the fronts and rears and center is actually a good price on them, The center is a custom made wow.

[@MaryWehmeier]

Love hearing Adrian doubting you... He acts like my husband. LOL

[@hartsmotorcompany]

Crazy score, I think Chad's drive back now to check it out

[@hurkamur1]

Nice haul fellas. He was probably crying after you pulled off, I know I would.

[@SuperMoleRetro]

Wow, I must have missed the new digs video. When did you get such a large area for storage?

[@marysullivan6136]

Wow so cool....I love the this type of electronics omg what a score... I grew up with my older brothers they served in air force so while stationed in Japan for yrs my brother would ship home piece by piece his speakers, turntables. He still has them. I was only one got to play records on the turntables because he had a very very specific way to do it. And his stuff looks as good as day he got it. Congrats I can't wait to watch it sell. I am wondering do you try sell local or right on ebay I know you do sell this type of stuff on ebay they just take out so much for electronics. I'm excited for you, I'm calling you next week so my husband Bill and I can meet up at your store. Thanks again for nice chat at the rally. Wow you guys put on the best event. Hey Deb said you have some of those plastic cups with straws and the vinyl zip ones... I'd like to buy a few

[@ResellerNiche]

Yikes Pete, you really know how to find them. Nice job!

[@qa7443]

Nice, I was e-baying just as the notification came in. Time to hustle harder.

[@YourFilmSchool]

Jealous. Can't wait to find a haul like that. I'd want to keep most of that.

[@stuckinfreeport1]

oh my god. I am so jealous. My mouth is watering

[@alanmaier]

Those Heresy speakers separate should do very well alone. With them being $2000/pr new now, the used value has shifted up. Ditto for the KHorns - surprised they are only bringing $2100/$2400 for the pair these days.

[@mrbottomfeeder]

Welcome back King Pete.

[@FATMAC73]

How much is a akai reel to reel worth made in 1972

[@rubenstuff1204]

love your videos. such a learning experience. question: What's an appropriate amount of bubble wrap for shipping boss 301 bookshelf speakers. I have 2 pairs I'd like to sell on eBay. thanks again. for all that you share.

[@craneoperator4]

Ruben Rodriguez wrap them good enough how you would like to get them as if you bought them and wanted them wrapped and packed good

[@youreeitherraikenmoneyoryo9934]

301 Bose are a commodity, sell locally and save the shipping hassles.

[@Daniel28021991]

Wow very cool

[@ChicagoCrownHustler]

What a find Pete! Craigslist find?!

[@ajbrown7245]

I'd like more detailed info on some of the items when you goto sell them.

[@rickallen6378]

You robbed that guy.

[@Cindy7777777]

Nice stuff!!!! A great profit is coming lol

[@christianj6845]

1:06 Terminator seen....

[@Crazywaffle5150]

OMG!! kjfkldsj. I am so jealous. You got one hell of a good deal!!

[@Scotty_in_Ohio]

That guy's wife isn't going to miss any of that gear - she's probably "over the moon" - if it were me I'd find a young adult who would appreciate those things and use them....

[@tubamacmac]

I want those Horns sooooooooo bad haha

[@humboldtlife.707]

Great score my man!

[@crazyxmas1]

Sweet scores!!!

[@velkome]

1970s ps3

[@SuperVincenot]

aladeen

[@robndoe3391]

nice find.

[@damiengunit9788]

Nice man cool respect

[@Designandrew]

fuck it must be hard selling your life off like this... but there must be some solace knowing it will be sold off by a pro to the people who want it (and will respect it) the most.

[@wendyodell356]

Is that your partner, the gentleman at the end of the video?

[@johnsradios484]

Great haul

[@karenpereira7797]

I don't understand why people want this stuff... I would bring a box of chocolate to that employee that is having a shit day. Peace and Hugs!

[@DetroitAnalog]

Because they never made them better, Karen. From the sixties, through the early eighties, the "audio wars" were on. Pioneer, Sansui, Sony, and all the other Japanese companies you can think of, started building their equipment with the highest quality materials available. They found that people were willing to pay much more for higher quality components, which resulted in purer, cleaner, better sounding playback of studio recordings. These improvements made new technologies possible, as the CEO:s of each brand, wanted to be known as the 'BEST', and of course, carry a price tag to match. But as the 80's reared its ugly head, along with junk bonds, Michael Milken, and the Keating Five (well connected Rich folks, ties to politicians, 70 Savings and Loan officials and some high ranking legiators went to jail.over that. Can you imagine that happening in today's political climate? Anyway, the profits started falling, in part because they were making these audio components too good. People that used to upgrade their stereos, were content to just keep them. These audio components are still kicking after 50 years, and with minor maintenance, may go another 50 years! They were made THAT GOOD. :0)

[@bloebachable]

Adrian is too negative. Pointing out everything negative about all the money you just made. Be happy with it! That's a huge score.

[@imxd1698]
