goverment like in "low income" housing?
post #3 of 14
if it is "low income housing" then you might consider getting out of there since you can afford nice stuffs so working joes like myself and many others don't have to work so hard to pay tax dollars to subsidize your stay when it may be unecessary.

Please tell me you don't own all of that, have computer service, own a PC and yet collect money from my pay check
Get real and be a man!

If this was all given to you or I somehow misread your post, then I apologize for being mistaken.

Government studies indicated that children raised in low fi, or no fi homes without the benefit of larger screen TV's and quality stereo systems suffered from low self esteem and envy that not only leads to low test scores in school but had a direct link to higher incidence of stereo equipment thefts in neighboring communities and higher incidence of shop lifting at BB. So the government created the Home Theater Credit program. A recent objection to the program found that even though families could now own higher valued equipment they did not tend to buy quality sounding music or watch more educational programs. Also there was an issue of gear being traded for other consumables which is not allowed by the program, most items were non recoverable.

Please allow me to clarify, Government housing as in military housing. As you can see there is profit in war. I am in the Army and I am stationed in Germany. I have replaced my Sherwood P965 with outlaw 990 and 2 model 2200 for my MMG's.

OH! Military housing!
In the seventies military folks were always bringing back high quality gear from Germany, and when they brought back too much, some of us got some good deals!
Now-a-days I would think it's the same gear worldwide, would this be true?

i bought my 1st decent stereo system in '73 while in the us army, stationed at camp zama, japan about 25 klics from downtown tokyo. i still use my vintage 34 yr old 4 channel pioneer amp that i bought in tokyo for my ht amp.

oh, and did i mention, we lived in low income government housing. aka military barracks! and liked it. well, tolerated it, anyway.LOL!

for a draftee whilst the viet nam war was still going on, i was very lucky; instead of getting shot at i was able to spend my leisure time skiiing down parts of mt. fuji.

This is true. As you can see I am using Outlaw and Maggies. They have chain stores like in the states, carrying mostly Denon and HK all on 220 volts. But you can get Yamaha, Pioneer and even B&W at the post exchange. I haven't been able to find any Rotel or Marantz though.
