While you didn't state if your 16 yr old is male or female, you might want to include a subscription to AudioXpress with the system. I think that male's would find it more interesting, but you never know. It is a mag that is based on upgrades / modifications / speaker building / tubes / DIY projects, etc... all things that a newcomer at that age would REALLY dig. After all, didn't you dream about building the "baddest" speakers in the world at that age ? This will tell them how and do it step by step. Sean
