I'm still a babe in terms of A/V. My parents had a stereo receiver when I was a kid, but I can't remember what type it was. My dad probably still has it. Hell he probably still uses it.

I do remember how exciting it was when they expanded on our turntable by adding a dual head tape deck, and *gasp* a 6 disc CD changer.

At one point he also brought home a Bose surround system back when they were still new and innovative. I wouldn't consider my dad an audiophile, but I remember he hooked everything up and ended up taking it back because he decided it sounded like crap.

Ahh..the good old days.

Glad he didn't let the price tag tell him how "good" it sounded, and actually used his ears to decide.
