What are some of your best thrift store or "give-away" AUDIOPHILE WORTHY finds!

(Sorry about the exclamation point rather than a "question mark" in the title. Editing won’t let me correct it.)

I just had to share! I just recently found a set (2) of Transparent MusicWave Ultra cables at a thrift store. I paid $60.00 for the set. I put them on a pair of KEF 107’s, which I found at another thrift store 2 weeks later, for $300 in perfect condition. WOE! KUSC radio and my CD collection have come fully ALIVE!

The "secret" of hunting at Goodwill is to go to a store in a wealthy area. Lots of rich people donate their unwanted stuff there! Poor area = poor selection!

Last year, I came across a Denon 59L turntable, in beautiful perfect working condition. (Not a scratch!) It was in an ANGEL’S VIEW thrift store. On Ebay, these have sold from about $800 to $1500 dollars. This store was only asking $35.00! Needless to say, it looks really nice next to my KEF 107’s mentioned earlier! All it needed was the Ortofon M20 cartridge I happened to have lying around and, SCORE!
