I was a do-it-myselfer waaaay back then, too. I built several kits; a Dynaco PAT-5 preamp and AF-6 tuner, and a pair of Southwest Technical Products Universal Tiger amps (familiar to Popular Electronics readers).

My main source was a Dual 1229 turntable (complete w/flip-out base storage and folding dustcover) w/a Shure V-15 Type III cartridge. Speakers were a pair of Rectilinear III's (nicknamed Highboys after the Lowboys came out).

Oh, let us not forget the Koss Pro-4 AAA's.
