John, Guildford

At the end of my first year at the University of Durham in 1974 I managed to get a job during the summer holidays and I earned enough to save up for my first HiFi system. My first system was an Amstrad system, as it had good reviews at the time and was reasonably priced for a student's pocket.

I thought that you might like to know that fifty years on, whilst the amplifier 'died' some years ago, my Amstrad Acousta speakers are still going strong and are still in use today. Now that is what I call an achievement, as well as a bargain !

I would just like to thank you for all the many years of pleasure the music they produce has given me.
