My fathers HK770 power amp puked on him tuesday. Today is his 55th birthday. He called me almost in tears tuesday about that. I told him not to stress over it. At one point he'd loaned me a REALLY crappy Sony receiver because I didn't have tunes at all, he was wanting it back(I don't know where it went). So for his birthday I'm going to give him my Onkyo M-501(guess I'm in the market for another power amp, any suggestions). I don't really want to come off of it, but I can always get another one. Besides, I know it will be well used and is going to a good home. Maybe the good karma will come back around to me in time.

    good to hear. We can't pay our parents back for all they done but any chance we get is a opportunity to repay them, take it.

    That gesture MIGHT make up for disposing of/losing your Dad's Sony rec. !:eek: Just Kidding, get the man fixed up with some tunes as soon as you can !:D
