There were lots of kids that were very accomplished during our teens. I remember one young woman in our class who bought herself a brand-new Volkswagen Rabbit as soon as she got her license which in Connecticut at the time you had to be sixteen and thirty days old to take the written exam and road test.
How old were you when audio gear first caught your interest?
Wondering how old people were when they first started to get interested in audio gear.
I first heard of Dual and Acoustic Research when I was around 13, but it did nothing for me, however, by the time I was 15 or 16 I definitely was interested. A relative had a Dual turntable, Scott receiver, Tandberg reel to reel and Rectilinear speakers (and he still has that gear, and the Rectilinears are still in use). I remember helping him get the speakers into his apartment. I also knew of Thorens.
That’s all back in the 70’s
