I was 4 years old, listening to a record on headphones connected to this rig. Leaned too far back, and caught the 1/4 inch input jack on the headphones right in my fucking eyeball.

Progress has been steady as far as I can tell. We have a much better understanding of the physics now and much better material engineering.

The problem is that anything "high end" in the audio space is either for professional use, or for audiophiles, aka, expensive as all heck.

You'll probably need another mortgage to get a setup like this working in modern days with all the up to date bells and whistles.

Don't get me wrong, if you spend the cash, it will sound amazing. There's some question as to what actually helps with sound quality and what is audiophile snake oil, but even with the snake oil, it sounds great; it just costs more than it would without the snake oil, and separating the snake oil from the stuff that actually improves the sound is a nightmare.
