Your first system and your journey...


Since we are on a audiophile (or is that audio-pile) site many, if not most, have had some decent systems.  I would enjoy in hearing from all/any about what your first system was made up of.  Mine was a Dynaco, I think something like a 35, tube integrated with some small British two way speakers and a BSR McDonald turntable with something like a 44E Shure cartridge , ...and yes, lamp cord for wires and whatever came on the turntable.  It is almost sad to say I have spent much more on some interconnects than that first system cost.

My first stereo was a carpeted 8track player with built in speakers at the foot of my bed.
 Had two carpeted cushioned stools which slid under it.
  I was 10 or eleven years old, and I would play 4 8 tracks nightly,

Upon my my early teens, I ventured into my dads reel to reel, and old Beatles, waylon, strawberry alarm clock records and a bunch more were daily spun.

  Had a few stereos since then,lots of good gear.

currently happy w my current gear.
hope to get 10 more years from components.
