Your First Hi-Fi Hankering?

Everybody remember the first time as a teenager you fell in love with a stereo? The first system that you really wanted badly? What was it? Did you buy it?

Don't laugh, but mine was a 55wpc Harman Kardon Receiver, Klipsch Fortes and a Dennon turntable. I had to settle for a Pioneer SX-650, Technics turntable (Empire Cartridge?) and a pair of crap house brand speakers called ECI.

This was in Scottsdale, AZ in the mid-late 70's. My dream system was at a place called Bill's Sight and Sound at Los Arcos Mall & bought the other stuff at a place called Custom Hi-Fi.

Technics SATX-50 reciever. While i was in the military.
Big analog power meters on the front, AC3 ready, MSRP 650.00, which was a small fortune to me at the time.

It was thier flagship model at the time, i save and save up and finally bought it.

That was the first of audio-crack for me, and the beginning of a long audio addiction
