Where did you buy your first audio gear?


I bought my first audio gear in a Post Exchange PX store in Baumholder Germany. I was a young soldier about 20 yrs old and bought a SAE amp and Preamp, Bose 901 speakers, Sony CDP-101 CD player and a Thorens TD 320 turntable. Where did you buy your first audio gear? What did you get?

JC Penney 😆. Then I "upgraded" to a Lafayette receiver. After serving in the AF I special ordered Crown IC150, Dc300 and the 11 band EQ. from the PX. That's when I got the bug!

Worked offshore summer after graduation came back and my older brother and his bud, a Klipsch rep set me up with a Yamaha 50 watt SS, Philips TT 312 think, and Heresy’s. My little brother has my Hersey, I have big brothers after his passing.
