An electronic device made and marketed by the "Chunky Widget Co." in 1974, which made it easy to connnect a TV to a home stereo system to improve the audio experience. The next generation device by the same creator became the first multichannel Home Theater sound system in 1975.
I bought a Widget at Tower Records on the strip, and connected my TV and Stereo together with it. The Midnight Special concert that night sounded Awesome!.
