Have you given Audio/Stereo equipment as gifts?

Perhaps it is the season, but I started thinking of audio related gifts I have given in the past..  I have given gifts of good to SOTA items to my two sons, my Mother, my two best friends and a few girlfriends/mates.  Many of those are still in use.  In thinking of other things, watches, clothes, vehicles...etc. it seems that gifts of audio gear may have been some of the most used and most appreciated......and, the most fun to give?

Been doing this for over 50 years and have bought a lot of  gear..
Never sold anything . When I run into young couples who are interested
   in Classical music but are short on cash, I give them a decent system 
with a hundred CD's of the best  Classical music .
Have done it  6 times so far.

When I was in college, having no car I walked maybe two miles to an electronics store having a 24 hour sale. It was late, I think after midnight, when the Technics turntable/cartridge that I wanted to give them for Christmas was on sale, and I carried it back to the dorm in preparation to give it as a Christmas gift for our home. My father loved organ music, especially E Power Biggs, and it was a pleasure to see him relish it with his albums.
