What's the oldest piece of gear in your system?


This site is here for the buying and selling of Audio equipment. This causes me to wonder if most of us have relatively new equipment. If most of it is new, what is the oldest piece of equipment still in use, and why are you still using it?

My oldest piece is a Sota Star Sapphire, but it has been upgraded. It was originally purchased as a Sapphire in the 80's, but was upgraded to a Star Sapphire about two or three years ago.

What's your story?

My whole system, except for cartridges.

McIntosh MC40 monoblocks (62-69)
Sansui 1000A (68 or 69)
Altec 604-8g studio monitors (mid 70's)
Thorens 160 (mid 70's)

It has all been gone thru and freshened up, and it all works flawlessly and sounds great to me.

Ooops, I just noticed even this thread is vintage. LOL
