Discontinued equipment that you wish were still here. What do you miss or think will miss?


and why ?
I miss reel to reel decks and top Nakamichi decks. Also, made in the West tubes. It's obvious why.

I'm embarrassed to admit that every once in a while I miss the old Loudness button when listening at low volume. Does that make me a "bad" person? ;-)

Not a bad person, just a bad audiophile........ ;~)

But seriously, I agree that having a bit of low end boost at low volume would sometimes improve the listening experience. Especially with some already thin sounding recordings.
@harrylavo - I had an Audionics BT-2 pre-amp and a pair of bridged CC-2 power amps. Good stuff in its day. I was in heaven at that time. I wonder how the combo would stand up against today's hardware? I replaced the Audionics combo with a Conrad Johnson PV2AR and Adcom GFA555. 
@tsugury  - I owned a Bizzy Bee Mod'd Cayin TA-30. Nice little amp and a great value at it's original price. Would be nice to still have one, but too much stuff in the unused audio bin....
