That’s a bargain compared to here. 91 octane is around $4.35. This is California after all

Hey thanks to @needforspeed @djwhy60 @vinnie747 and any other older heads I forgot - spent part of lunch break just now getting off my butt and making that speaker wire antenna!
It sounds great!
I stripped one end of each, ran it into the 300 terminals, then separated but didn’t strip the wires and ran them up behind the mirror to hide it, in a T shape with some painters tape.
Check it out! Fleetwood Mac on the classic rock station

Watched a couple Utoob vids with some Java
Kevin from Skylabs did a vid on 9 pieces of HiFi gear that basically failed even though they were actually really great products. The Nak TX1000 Turntable was one of em!. It went for $8000.00 in the early 80s it would automatically adjust the sub platter to compensate for records with mis-centered holes.
Darko discussed the virtues of room treatment especially if a person is spending a multiple of 10s of thousands on a pair of speakers. I tend to agree if a person can afford to drop 30 to over 80 grand+ on speakers. They probably should be sure that their listening room is going to allow the system to function at its full capacity.
Now I'm enjoying some loungey tunes with more Java in my non-treated room except for the mess treatment

You hid it behind the mirror? You should be proud of your handiwork and light it up for the world to see. You could be single-handedly responsible for a worldwide revival in FM radio.
Ok. I’ll shut up now. No need to labour the point, I guess.

Hmm. I can distinctly hear Lara’s Theme from Dr Zhivago, by Maurice Jarre playing somewhere in my house. I guess it must be the troll in the dungeon who is responsible.

What I wonder is how this speaker wire/antenna trick got known and spread so widely back in the day? Seems everyone 45 and over knows it and it’s just news to me as of when yall explained it
