This hobby is getting weird ....

I just finished listening to a CD through my headset which is plugged into the headphone jack on my integrated amp.
I also have the TV and a tuner connected to the amp. Both were shut off. When the CD was finished I didn't take the headset off right away. Then I could hear very faint voices, then music coming through the headset. Has anyone else ever experienced this, and what is it?

I think that a lot of cassets used to be made from recycled tape. Maye from an eight track or reel to reel.

I lived in one place where anytime day or night the rear speakers of my system (with 25' wires along the wall) would burst out with CB chatter with the passing of some 'ol pickup truck. Needless to say I moved from that place and dumped the surround system.

I once had a preamp that would pickup radio broadcast from Mexico or at least the language was spanish.
