Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: I always thought...

IIRC the whole gist of the Kloss ads was that you could put together a fine sounding receiver and speakers for about $400. That counted $102 ea for the two utility (vinyl) large advents plus $200 for the Sherwood 7100A or Pioneer SX-525. The little Marantz (2230 ?)receiver was $249 at the time I think so that setup would have been $50 extra.

changer/turntable and cassette deck were extra. I think the cheapest Dual maybe a 1214? ran about $120 and would have been a common choice. http://www.dual-reference.com/tables/1214.htm

Finding a Dolby-equipped cassette deck for under $200 was the tricky part
