My first set of speakers were actually a set of Koss Pro AAA headphones. I couldn't afford speakers until a year later. When funds allowed I ended up purchasing a set of Technics SBL 300's. They were ported three-ways with a 12 " woofer, 3" midrange and horn tweeter. They weren't cheap either. $500.00 in 1980 was a fair amount of green.

I owned the Technics until 1986. When I moved to New York to chase my rock and roll dream I left the SBL 300's back in PA. I eventually bought a pair of Energy ESM monitors.
