What did your system look like 30 years ago?


As best as I can recall, this is what I had

Magnepan MG1.4 speakers; Rega Planar 3 turntable with a Linn K9 cartridge; CAL Icon CD player;  Adcom GTP500 II tuner/preamp; Adcom GFA545 amp

I still have my Zerostat which I bought in the 80's-
128x128zavato
I'm not that old, I was 10 30 years ago. But 20 years ago..



McIntosh C34v. Preamp
Mcintosh mc7300 x2 (bridged) 
Mcintosh Mcd7005  cd playerYamaha NS-2000
Yamaha NS-1000

I still use the amps to this day and have gone back to the Yamahas every few months. But I still have every piece of this setup, with the boxes and crates.

Pioneer Elite Receiver. Heavy piece of electronics!
Sony ES CD player.  5 CD Carousel 
Def Tech BP10. Blown away by the bipolar impact on soundstage.  Wall of sound. 
linn table ,magnepan arm,magnepan mg3 ,Conrad Johnson pre and power ,somewhere around then I got a pioneer elite cd ,velodyne subs .I also had a nakamichi reel ,ADS and DCM speaker changes around that time among luxman, tandberg and denon gear 
My Infinity IRS Betas looked identical to how they do today.....like new.
My Linn Sondek ...same...like new 30 yrs ago and today
My Mark Levinson 23's as well....like new.
Only piece not the same....went up one number ....Audio Research 6B replaced by a Klyne 7.

Wow.  Time goes by fast.

This has turned into my wife's set-up as I have been relocated to the basement....with much sweeter system but with much lower WAF.
