My first 'Hi-Fi' bought with my own cash in 1985 was a horrendous Sony stack thing coupled with some actually quite nice Celestion Ditton 130's. Which I should mention are still in use at my brothers place as I type. Bought from Richer Sounds in 1988 my first 'proper' Hi-Fi if I can say that, was a NAD 3130 amp and a pair of AR 12 or 112 bookshelf speakers. I can't remember if they were 12 or 112? I can't remember either what CD player I had back them. No photographs I'm sad to say, but lots of fond memories!
