I don't know jack on this subject, but I always thought the McIntosh stuff was the coolest. While in high school in the early 70's a friends well-to-do parents had a two story high living room with floor to ceiling glass looking from a hillside view across the valley to Mt. Diablo. In there was a custom built McIntosh system that cost his parents $2,000 in the 60's including the cablinet. We sat on the floor around a 5' diameter oyster shell inlay coffee table and played that thing while smoking pot.
Suddenly, the parents showed up unexpectedly before we could clean much up or deal with the smell of the smoke. They stood above us silently surveying the situation, and after about 30 seconds, the mom said "Well, do I get a hit?"
