It was 20 years ago today. . What was your system?

I was just out of college and flat broke, so all I had was a crappy boombox. As soon as I really started making money, sadly nearly 8 years later, I immediately started assembling a good stereo. The rest, as they say, is history.

In '93 my system hadn't changed since the mid-70s. Dahlquist DQ-10 speakers, Epicure One amp (125 WPC), Audio Research SP3A1 preamp, Lenco L75 turntable, ADC XLM III cartridge, Nakamichi 550 cassette deck. No CD player then, and still none today.

SOTA Sapphire/Magnepan Unitrac/Grace F9E Ruby (still use them, w/Soundsmith cartridge re-tip)

Mark Levinson ML-1 preamp (still use its phono section, accessed via tape outs). Also briefly owned a pair of Marantz 1's and a Marantz 7 around that time.

Various power amps, including:
Marantz 2's (wonderful!!)
Marantz 9's
Threshold S300
Carver M400t (vastly better than earlier non-t versions, and a very respectable performer, at least when paired with easy to drive speakers).

Stax Lambda Pro Headphones w/Stax ED-1 Diffuse Field Equalizer (still use them).

Rotel RCD-855 CD Player.

Various FM tuners, including:
Two different Marantz 10B's
Carver TX-11
H. H. Scott 311D + Fisher MPX-100
Fisher FM90X + MPX-100.

Teac Cassette Deck.

Pentagram P-10 Speakers (Revised Version) (little known and under-appreciated by some; these were excellent speakers that served me well for many years). Also briefly owned two different pairs of large vintage Tannoy speakers and a pair of B&W 801's around that time.

RTR III speakers, Kenwood receiver, Harmon Kardon CD player, Kenwood dual cassette deck, 12 guage romex speaker wires.

Straight Wire IC
