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

I noticed some people going back 35 years but I'll stick to 20 years because it was the same as 35 year. 20 year ago I was only a couple of years out of college and I was struggling with a landscape business. I had a Technics receiver, tape deck and turntable with Genesis two way speakers. I also had some really nice Pioneer headphones. I beat the living daylights out of that system and it took it like a champ.

1993 was right about when I spent $2000 on one of the early in dash CD players. Funny thing was I had it installed in a 1978 Ford pickup truck I bought for $800. It sounded amazing, it was a great truck and my girlfriend was a great soul and she was smoking hot.

I was just into my first teaching job and had been house sitting and living here and there while getting my credentials so....a pair of Proac Tablettes, Naim 62/HiCap/140, Linn LP12 and a Meridian MCD. All very portable (except the LPs!) and very musical.

HarmanKardon Citation amp and preamp, Infinity speakers, RekOKut turntable with Grado Lab arm and (don't remember the cartridge)

Hmmmm. 1993. AR XA table w stock arm and Signet TK7E cart (been w me since grad school), NAD 6300 cassette deck, NAD 504?? CDP, Yamaha C-2a pre, Moscode 300 amp, Monster cables!!!, and Vandersteen 2ci. Still have the NAD 6300 at my house at the beach if anyone wants one, PM me.

Hmmmm, Hmmmmm, Hmmmmm. 1978- Same AR XA table, CM Labs CC-3??? pre, CM Labs 911 amp, Monster cables, and Infinity RSbs. That amp was a beast, I drove those Infinitys to nosebleed SPLs until a lightening strike fried it. BTW, the infinities are sitting in my basement. Cabinets fair, EMITs and polypro mids working but foam surrounds on the woofers are toast. Anyone???

Vandersteen 1Bs, Acurus A250, Adcom preamp, Rotel CD.
