Ah, my old haunt Salvation Army, LOL. I've found so much great stuff there over the years. That reminds me that I still have a Sansui QRX-9001 sitting in the garage that I haven't gotten around to testing. (That sucker weighs 50lbs!)
Btw, a similar principle applies to speakers. There are so many speaker manufacturers and levels of quality that it can get hard to keep track of. But as a general rule, the best speakers have a huge magnet and a thick non-resonant cabinet... so they're also absurdly heavy for their size.
