I bought my first stereo at age 17 ------ I'd saved up for awhile (about $2000)
The thing I remember most was the beautiful walnut Dynaco A-25 speakers.
I also had a Lafayette receiver that was built in a really nice wood case (cherry?).
These days, my 17 yr old kid spends $25 on a cute little plug-in speaker that puts out just as much sound. If he's feeling serious about tonal quality, he puts on a pair of $50 headphones.
His music source (Mp3) player is for all practical purposes - disposable.
