Your first “high end” system

DCM Time Windows, AGI preamp, Marshall Leach amplifier, Technics 1200 tt with Denon 103d MC cart.  Also had a Teac reel to reel with Dolby, but I can't remember the model number.  It was a nice system. Don't know exactly when I had it because I can't reference the purchase to any specific life events. I still have 7" tapes I recorded from my better records, but I don't know anyone who would want them, even for free. 

Sansui speakers and receiver with AR turntable and Shure V15 also Sony reel to reel that i got in Nam 1968.

Rega Planet, Bryston B-60 and a pair of Definitive Technology towers I can't recall the model. This would be late 90s.

It's all relative, ain't it? One person's high end is another's entry-level. I've listed my journey in my profile if you want to make the call on where it becomes high-end!
