Used my Astrolux S41 to connect a speaker wire from a small amplifier to the speaker unit in an old jukebox in my friend's house.
That jukebox still looks great, but it's record player is beyond repair although the speaker inside it is still working perfectly.
Now it's playing music again, through that amplifier and a small PC with a playlist of my friend's favorite songs.
This ended up in a little prank.
My friend is a 60's and 70's aficionado, and he lived in the USA from the late 50's to the middle 80's.
Now living in the Netherlands, Europe, his house is an almost perfect 60's museum.
He once told me about the muzak that used to play in a lot of stores and factories in the 60's and 70's, and how he grew to hate it, as it was being 'force-feeded' to the employees in a lot of workplaces for years on end...
The company he worked for back then bought a Seeburg 1000 background music machine, which my friend learned to regret for over 7 years. :green:
Here in Europe, muzak (or background music in general) never grew as big as in the USA.
While he was away on an errand, I finished hooking up that amp to his jukebox, and played some music from a Seeburg 1000 I found somewhere online.
He came home, started talking about some nice stuff he bought, until he heard that muzak playing in his room.
He looked at me sideways, hissing: "How the eff did you find this music! I didn't hear this in 30 years, and was hoping for another 30 years without it..!"
The look on his face was priceless, and we all cried from laughing about it. :laughing:
