Junk electronics
Haunz I thought you ended up with all the junk electronics. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
alot of it goes to thrift stores, which in turn sort it out from the good and toss it in the garbage. I was working at Value Village in the past..it was a shame...they were throwing out Kloss headphones and all sorta of audio goodies. Too abd it's against policy to keep them.

Othertimes you cant even get parts..
Thankfully, I luck out once in awile and can find part doners free or at least cheap.... like the kenwood amp I just stole a set of tosheba transitors out of that arnt made anymore... (actually you would pay about $30 US + tax and shipping for counterfits)
Seems like it might be worth while to look for a place that has all kinds of junk for me to steal...

Bring your old electronics to an Electronics Recycler They exist in every major city in Canada, you just have to find them.
For example, if you live in Greater Vancouver, click here:
