How about in the late 1970's? Philips turntable, Shure V-15, PhaseLinear 400, stacked wood Advents, Kenwood tuner. 1979: Kenwood marble TT and SME arm replaced Philips. Forty years ago: The same amp and pre-amp brand I have now (Audire), but upgraded models, plus stacked B&W DM14's, which are still in use on my televisions, one with Hafler electronics donated by a friend.
