I remember back in the late 60's, early 70's as a young lad me and my friends all had portable pocket radios that were AM only and we would listen for the most part to the same top 40 pop of the day on a local AM station!We never really commented on which radio sounded better,we just enjoyed listening to the music together! Some of us would say whether we liked or hated a certain song,but never really talked about sound quality!When our parents thought we were old enough to own our own stereo systems,our parents got us 1 for our birthday or Christmas(Mine was for my birthday!)!Mine was a Lloyd's all in one(Don't even remember the model.)! Again it was sort of the same thing!We never really talked about how it sounded,but more or less things like did you hear what so and so said or played on the radio? I guess back then we were so into the music we all thought it sounded good no matter what we were using to listen to the pop hits of the day!It was years later when we became 15 or 16 years old that we started listening to FM and records more often!It was really then that we started to pay more attention to how it sounded! But to this day I still don't ever remember 1 of us saying my stereo sounded better then yours.we would basically just comment on how good that song was! I wish sometimes I could go back to them days and just listen to the music more,then trying to find whats not quite right with my system speakers and all! These are just some thoughts of mine,that hopefully make sense to some of you!I'm sure we all have been down that simular road before while growing up! Brian
