your first system-


I put together my first system in 1977- turntable, receiver, speakers and a cassette deck- $600. An on-line inflation calculator tells me that is $2760 in 2022 dollars. I am sure a current $1500 streaming based system can be assembled that would demolish my 1977 system. That's what I call real progress!

Sony  80 wpc STR-6800, Marantz 6800 TT, Infinity 1001A's (rear firing tweeter) and a BIC two speed cassette tape deck

1980

First "real" one was a Hafler 500 Amp and Carver Holographic Pre, B&O BeoGram TT, Nakamichi Tape Deck, a Pair of Infinity Column II’s (Transmission line) and a Miller Kreisel Triangular shaped subwoofer. It was in a very small living room and that thing ROCKED !
