There's no question that there was a brand premium to be paid in 1969. AR, KLH and Advent all commanded them, and "Suggested List" was for real in those days.
McIntosh would simply drop dealers who didn't stick to the price sheet.
Dynaco offered the entry-level person a little more flexibility, which is why it was so popular.
I think you can put together a better system for $400-$500 now than then, especially on the front end. That leaves more for speakers.
