your first system-

It was 1979, my sophomore year of HS

NAD 3140 integrated amp

Sony PS-X60 w/Shure V15 phono

Nakamichi 480 cassette

Celestion Ditton 15XR spkrs w/factory chrome stands

*updated Celestions with a factory kit to accept the improved tweeters ~ 1982

It was a great bedroom system.

1981? Sony V-fet integrated, Polk Audio 7, Pioneer turntable and Shure cartridge., complete with lamp cord and red and white RCAs. I think the vfet was 125 watts but I blew it up twice anyway.

In 1978:

Sony integrated amp; used circa 1968

Marantz direct drive turntable with AT cartridge (new)

Sony tuner (new)

EPI 110 speakers (used)

I had these components for 5 years before moving up.

I can't recall models, but1981 Technics TT, Receiver and speakers. The cheap entry level ones. The TT was an SL model with an Audio Technica cartridge.
