My audio journey started 55 years ago, I was in the Army and bought my first system of separates. Sansui AU555 amplifier, TU555 tuner, Sansui Sp100 speakers, Dual 1019 turntable and AKAI R2R with crossfield heads. It began a lifelong journey and gave me immense pleasure as rock and roll was at its height of creativity in that period.
That said, many years later (40) I was in a place where I could acquire a new system and put a few $$ into it. It was 2005 when I discovered Maggies. After I heard them the first time I was hooked. My wife was in total agreement and wven said she would be Ok if I wanted the big 20 version, but our room was too small for them and we bought the 3.6s we still have and love. I think we joined a small cult - LOL, as there are a good number of Maggie fans out there.
