Wow- 30 years ago? Nothing, nothing at all. I was in grad school and my gear was packed away in Florida. I used a boom box for tunes. But what was packed away was a Kenwood KD1033 turntable, Shure V15 type 3 cartridge, Pioneer SX-450 Receiver, and Studio Design 46 Speakers (Tech Hifi house brand) . I also had a Teac A150 cassette deck.

When I graduated in 85 I bought a Thorens Turntable (traded towards the Rega), Shure v15 type 5 (traded at the same time) AR speakers (gave to a friend, still has it), Aiwa cassette deck (it's in my basement right now) and an Akai receiver( gave to another friend, still has it). I always figure my Thorens table as my first piece of high end gear.
