When I was a kid, one of the necessities was a high-end stereo. Almost all the young men I knew had nice stereos. Some had super nice ones. I was one of those. Today, I know of no one, zilch, that has a stereo of any kind. All my kids and grandkids listen on their phones. And even watch all their movies there also... Yea, it going to be a dead-end road shortly as us older folk retire earth.
