    I have an example of the Sony TC-777 R to R; none of that other stuff, though. :/
    Actually -- which Mac tuner is that? I do have an MR-67 -- I think the one in the photo's probably an MR-65.
    The Mac preamp is a C-11, I think.
    Not sure about the turntable.
    EDIT: As far as the loudspeakers -- those thin-line loudspeakers were all the rage for a few years in the early 1960s. Literally everybody offered several models. I mean literally everyone... well... almost. ;) Fisher did, Scott, too I think. Most of the big US names (although not Mac, AFAIK). Radio Shack, Lafayette, and Allied all did. EDIT^2 Do I espy a "!" label (see below) on those loudspeakers? ;)JBL offered a few different thin-cabinet loudspeaker models in those days, too! :) They had drivers like the JBL LE8A fullrange, and, in at least some models, passive radiators, too!

    Oh. at a closer look at the photo - the turntable appears to be a Weathers; no idea which precise model. The Weathers tts, arms, and cartridges were all... interesting. Quite different design philosophies for all three relative to the status quo of the era.

    Not sure if this will even be confirmed, but it looks like this -

    A Sony RTR from the late 60's. TT is too blurred or AI. The rest.....Fisher?

    It's getting late, so I am running out of gumption: here's an example JBL thin-line loudspeaker from the 1964 Allied catalog - "Trimline 54"
    source: https://www.alliedcatalogs.com/flipbook/1964_allied_radio_catalog.html

    LE8 fullrange driver and a passive radiator (8", too, IIRC).

    Does she really look happy, or is it faked? Perhaps a happy wife is more important than the gear??? Asking for a friend.

    She may be sitting on the subwoofer whilst her partner is playing a Blue Man Group album.
    Mind you, this is purely speculation on my part. B)

    Brought back some good and bad memories. My mom had a "hickory switch" that was always standing up on the fireplace mantel. THANKS!
