here is the story of the first time I heard Hotel California on a hi-fi system:

* hi-fi and ramen
I caught the hi-fi bug while still in college, meaning that I had no money and had chosen a terrible hobby for my circumstances. nevertheless, I persisted and was determined to buy a pair of passive speakers and an integrated amp.

I found a pair of Totem Rainmaker bookshelf speakers on marketplace for $465. this was way more than I should have spent at the time but it wasn’t anything that ramen for a few months (or years) couldn’t solve. the speakers were made by a local company not far from where I lived in Montreal and featured black ash wood cabinetry, paper woofers, and metal dome tweeters. and, most importantly, they were $465.

sounds like a college rite of passage! trading gourmet meals for epic sound is a solid choice. 🎶🍜
