At least in the Northeast, Lafayette Radio Electronics was bigger than Radio Shack during the 1960s. I still have a couple of Lafayette reel-to-reel recorders, and a pair of Lafayette "Criterion" bookshelf speakers. Used to buy all kinds of electronic kits and components at the local Lafayette store.
As far as Radio Shack audio stuff, I still have a "Realistic" brand turntable in the living room which is actually an Elac Miracord model 40 made in West Germany. (This thing has a cast aluminum platter that must weigh in at 6 or 7 pounds.)
