Mike insisted on being on the cutting edge of sound systems, so when the surround sound headphone system was announced, he had to have one.
After listening to Dark Side of the Moon and Tales of Mystery and Imagination for twelve hours straight, he announced that it was the best sound reproduction he had ever experienced.
Unbeknownst to Mike, his co-worker Phil , who was sick of him going on about "tuned oxygen free cat 5 cables" to "ensure the purity of the digital signal", had set up the announcement of the new system. He had then hand built the unit Mike purchased for thirteen thousand dollars. He had made it from printed parts, and a $5 headphone set from the dime store. There was no surround sound system, just some random circuits that did nothing.
Now he had a hundred and eighty three orders for the things.
What to do?
