What were some of your early Hi-End audio gear/influences?

I am now in my late '60s and became interested in "real" audio gear in 1968.  KLH compact stereo, Dynaco, Garrard/BSR and more.  

I have owned most of the brands that you would associate with hi-end audio.  That said, I don't think any other product had as much influence on setting me down the road to the "real" music sound quality than the original Large Advent.  Thank you Mr. Kloss.

Hail Kloss, original Large Advents for me too.  Had them for 20 years or so, powered by a Heathkit kit integrated amp, & a Fisher/Shure TT/cart.
Later assembled Dynaco pre & power amp for them too.  As a young teen I was mesmerized by the sound of a church room stereo, with medium sized KLH speakers, that's what first hooked me.

I also followed the Large Advents with Vandersteen 2Ci's.
