Late 90s for me got my first real paying job and decided since I liked listening to music more than anything I should get a real stereo. First real system a Rega Planet, Bryston B-60 bought new and some two way Definitive Technology towers I picked up used. Shortly after that I discovered Audigon the rest is history.
How long ago did you catch the bug?
My first inkling was about 1972 when a friend mentioned such things as Dual, Thorens, AR, Scott, etc. By '74-'75 I knew about all the Japanese manufacturers (courtesy of a military PX catalog) and about McIntosh. By '76 was using a hand me down all in one Panasonic compact system. The compact system did not last long and very shortly after, '77, came a "proper" 1970's system with such names as Pioneer, Kenwood, Shure, AR, Teac.
