I would imagine that the system does in fact sound the way it did 20 years ago, but that two dynamics are at play. First is that memory is selective. Since the sounds was so impressive at the time (and it likely was), the memory is that it was "the best." Second, the definition of "the best" has moved up considerably in the last 20 years. Duplicating the system may be OK from the nostalgic perspective, but today there is much better music to be had from our systems than from the time period you referenced. I am not a dealer and do not want this to be an advertisement. But I have worked with someone (delaer) that I believe would be able to offer guidance to you on this quest. He is in NJ. If interested e-mail me at jkphoto@aol.com and we can discuss.
