Dieter Rams was one of my favorite industrial designers -- his work with Braun
appliances and electronics resonated with me. I still have my Braun Aromaster
coffee maker from college.

I just "inherited" a Harmon Kardon 330B from my mother (she's moving and
doesn't have room for it). It was my parents' "HiFi" in the 70s, and from what
I've seen is highly sought after because it has a tube sound, although it's all
ICs. Old HK stereos from that era just look incredible to me.

Keeping on topic, I have a BaoFeng UV-5R and am studying for my license while
listening to the aforementioned FM receiver.  :)
