RE: Remembering some past systems

First stereo (at age 16) was a Sound Design receiver with an 8 track player built in.

Second was a HK quad receiver (remember those?)with 4 Bose 501's and a BSR TT.

Third, sold my motorcycles (too much pain) in 1975 and bought an all Pioneer system including the Spec 1 and 2, 9500 tuner, 9191 cassette (lemon) HPM 200 speakers, Empire 698 table with Sure V15 cart (what a bargain for around $3200). Enjoyed the hell out of that for 10 years, sold it then bought it back 20 years later and gave it to my son. Still have most of the system in my garage.

Fourth was a Carver system, 1.0T amp C2 pre, TX11 tuner and Kef 103.3's and M&K sub.
Fifth and current, Cary SLI80 and Phase Linear 700B in bi amp configuration, DSpeaker 2.0, Music 7 table, OPPO 95, Von Schweikert VR-22, AKG 701 cans.
Very happy at this point.

Future plans possibly Cary SLP-98 pre and a Pass Labs amp at some point.


Without music what is there?
