I could only dream of owning a set like this back in 1975...I was 15 years old in '75 when this set was new. I recall seeing them in Radio Shack's 1975 catalog and thinking $400 was a figure I could never afford...this was their top of the line model back then...
...well, now I finally have one.  It just took a few years to save up the money. Okay, a few decades.
