What was your first system? When was that?

I almost forgot my most priced possession at the time my Tandberg  Reel to Reel
it was going out with the garbage from a neighbor who brought it home after Vietnam.it did not work ,$35 and 2 capacitors that was the techs repair charge back then . It was excellent sounding and master tapes were easy to sourse and sounded  Great !!

My first real stereo was in 1980
Klipsch Heresy speakers ,Kenwood integrated amp,tuner and  Lafayette receiver- Anyone remember  them ?  Nakamichi 3 head 
cassete deck , Audioquest cabling. Technics direct drive turntable
audio shure  cartridge. In my neighborhood it was pretty dam good for a 22 year old kid.
