RE: Your first Stereo

Posted by Todd Krieger on August 22, 2015 at 21:33:57:
It was likely this unit.... The image states it's an Aircastle SE-1200, but I think mine was badged with a different brand name and model. It had a tuner and 8-track player. (Picture shows 8-track tape inserted on the right side of the "left" speaker.) The stereo speakers clipped together, and had a handle up top (rear of "left" speaker) to carry like a lunch box.
The first "component" stereo I had was a small Lafayette integrated amplifier with "ARX 444" speakers (from the infamous Cal Stereo in Los Angeles).
