Cool story......my mom's side of the family is from Binghampton.....she went to Johnson City High School way back. We used to spend all Christmas holidays up there with the grandparents back in the 80's. Of course that's way before the hifi days. Grandfather worked for IBM over in Endicott if I remember correctly.
