My stuff is Sansui G-9000 receiver, Altec model 19s and a Luxman TT with SME arm and Denon MC cartridge with matching step up from Denon.
I always drooled over the McIntosh stuff but never could afford it.

No...enjoyed the memories and a few of mine too...lived in a place in small town in MD yes MD...now its overcrowded parents are gone but during those days my high school in Pasadena was the first county school with a/c, no windows, no upper class so we moved to be the first graduation class. We had friends of color never talked about the difference we grew up together and to hear the yell of my name walking into reunions was incredible we all did the same. Funny the people who were the cool kids all were overweight and strangely dressed...a friend of mine in her wedding to a wonderful man...now watching over her said and it still resonates ever so often....Well...from what I can see you two are the best preserved....teachers were half and half hippies but times were good then life was fun for the most part really. Thanks for the memories!

You nailed it with the stereo wars. A portion of my student loan in 1971 went to a Crown DC 300 amp ($700), SAE preamp, prior to their sale and handmade to military grade specs ($685), Thorens TD125 with Shure SME ($900) and Bose 901 ($6-700), and it cranked. I just gave all to my son who set up a vinyl room and still sounds fabulous. Great memories with great sound. Thanks for the memory.

My HS graduation too! I lived in a small-to-medium sized town in far East Texas. We did (edit: NOT) have kids that looked like or acted like those two. Not that we were a whole lot better than anyone else - we weren't - but we were isolated enough (meaning: far enough from Dallas) that our local teachers had more influence over us than just about anything else, except for our parents.

Went to my 50 year reunion, and two of our teachers (both on their feet and looking 25 years younger) were there. Six years later...they're still in great shape! It was a shock to realize just how young they must have been in 1967 - and we thought they were old back then! (Sorry I kind of got off topic :-) )

You missed the Golden Age of big stereos by a few years. Not much from the 80s can compete with the stereo wars of the 70s when all the big companies were outdoing each other with bigger and more powerful amps and receivers. I bought my stuff while serving during Vietnam and it still works perfect and will blow most stuff made today away. Dragnet was a staple in our home along with the Ed Sullivan show and the Wonderful World of color by the original Walt Disney.

Bam da bump bump!!! It was a rare episode when either Jack or Harry broke a smile. I remember Harry’s character puking one time at some atrocity or another. A great show.

Webb talks about instant food, instant communication, and instant transportation.

We now have a whole generation of kids glued to devices, who probably don't even notice when Spring arrives.

This is even more relevant today than it was in 1967.

Well, I watched He Man and Thundercats in High School and college to decompress. I can still moonwalk though!

Shame I was only a toddler when this aired.

It might have prepared me against the communist onslaught in my upcoming public education.

OH MY GOSH....I remember this too...Dragnet...those were the days! and the year of my High School Graduation!

Classic. Too bad Biden can't remember the show otherwise he might say "OK guys, give me a break." No breaks for you Biden. You are the problem, not the solution.

Nope. I'm a child of the 80's. Grew up on G.I. Joe, Transformers, and He-Man after school. High bangs and jelly bracelets, big stereos and break dancing.

Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!! I thought you were older than me Blar-buddy. You is not!

Love these old shows. Catch them on Pluto TV

Stores and then homes would be stormed by countless people who think the world owes them anything and everything and don't forget those 10 million or more illegals who traitors allowed to invade our country.

Brilliant!

i have been watching Dragnet again
the Wisdom of Jack Webb is Breathtaking
and Sorley Missed

one basic issue today is that people have way too much free time
100 years ago just finding food was a problem that took time
today, people think they should be entertained all the time and have zero idea how to do it now without they phone
think what will happen it there IS a massive solar flare....

Holy smokes! I haven't seen this in years, but I do remember it!
