Don't for get the impact of hundreds of thousands of GI's that had access to the PX and BX stores during the Viet Nam war era. Those 5 way Coral speakers were certainly something to behold after listening to the fold out and portable stereos of the late 60s and early 70s.
Kenwood, Pioneer and Sansui provided the foundation for many systems. The first stereo cassette deck that I used in 1972 was bought by an Air Force sergeant on his way back stateside.
I wouldn't be surprised if a few of those old receivers were still chirping out tunes in someone's garage tonight.
