Comment on Everything was indeed brown.

Yes! I definitely had the huge ass tower of stereo equipment. It was a Philips branded stack and the main volume knob had a little red light on it, when you used the remote to put the volume up or down, it actually rotated the knob! It blew my mind when I saw that, so I just had to have it. It had a dual cassette deck, with fast rewind and fast copy options. A very good CD player, AM/FM radio and an amp with EQ. I think there was an option for records, but I didn’t have that, this was the 80s we needed high tech! The CD player had stuff like random order, lead-in, lead-out, etc. Mine was all black with little silver metal trims. Big ass speakers that weren’t optimized for volume or bass like these days, but for excellent sound quality and clarity.
I also had the glass shelves with a whole bunch of CDs and one of those towers where you put in the CDs at a 45 degree angle.
Man those were the days.
