My passion began around 1989 with a modest pair of Yamaha full range speakers with big 12” woofers, a modest Yamaha stereo amp and a Sony CD Player that I begged my dad for and he saved for months to get me for my birthday (we were a blue collar family and this was a huge expense). I carried that rig to college, to NY for my first job and back to Atlanta for my second job before upgrading them. I am sure they would hurt my ears today, but they still sound amazing in my memory and remind me of my dad to this day.
What were some of your early Hi-End audio gear/influences?
I am now in my late '60s and became interested in "real" audio gear in 1968. KLH compact stereo, Dynaco, Garrard/BSR and more.
I have owned most of the brands that you would associate with hi-end audio. That said, I don't think any other product had as much influence on setting me down the road to the "real" music sound quality than the original Large Advent. Thank you Mr. Kloss.
