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?

I also purchased MicroAcoustic speakers from Tech Hifi in Nashua, NH. Mine had the three tweeter array.

Lafayette Electronics, Norristown, PA. Integrated amp, Criterion 50 speakers, Garrard turntable w/Pickering cart. ca. 1968.

Another old guy here. Lafayette Radio Electronics (my first job) in Lancaster, PA then Tech Hifi in New Brunswick NJ my second.

Army - Airforce audio video club in Germany in 1992 (? or there about).  Adcom GFA 545ii, GFP 555ii, a Nakamichi CD player, and B&W DM640 speakers.  Nakimichi is toast, but still have the rest, and it still sounds pretty good.  My divorce present replacing the rack mount kenwood system the ex kept.
