RE: So what did happen in the 80's that made the 70s look so good

I do remember watching the quality of Yamaha's receivers steadily decline through the 80's, but the integrated amps and tuners did not see a big decline. Yamaha did make some excellent separates and CD players. Their TOL was still great stuff. Denon did a much better job maintaining there quality, and I still recommend their 80's gear. It was a travesty what happened to Luxman. However, the Sony ES stuff was very good (IMO).

There were lots of great speakers in the 80's. Too many to list. I will have to take you word on the guitar stuff. I know very little about it.
