Your experience in "in their day" brands/components that you remember foundly?

I love music and have enjoyed "high-end" audio for several decades.

With this being said, I am interested in hearing what may be your

"golden oldies" that you have owned? For me there are many that

were part of my beginnig. The original large Advents and a Yamaha

CA-1000 started my "better gear" travels...that lead to Dahlquists, Magnepans,

and seperated from Audio Research, Conrad Johnson, early Classe and

many others. What were your "roots" that helped your journey?

I kept the R2R, but gave everything except the 901s to my son in 2019. I gave the Bose 901's and EQ to my goddaughter. In the mid-90's, I bought a McIntosh system: MC-2600 amp, MC-31v control unit, MCD7007 CD Player, MR7083 Tuner, and JBL L100 speakers. I sold the McIntosh system in 2021. I gave the JBL L100 speakers to my nephew. Both systems sounded wonderful to my ears and to everyone else who heard them at the time. Everything that I gave away is still working fine.
