My take on vintage audio-some of it stands up to the best of today.
And, a lot of that great vintage stuff, was ridiculed and called obscenely expensive back in it's day.
Some things never change.
If a piece of gear that is expensive gets a good review, the cost of such gear always draws negative responses from the folks who base their judgement on the cost, not the performance.
I think there is a lot of stuff made today that will be the much sought after vintage finds in the future.
It's a good thing the audiophiles of yesterday ignored the cries of indignation concerning costs.
The vintage folks would be out of luck.
They bought that stuff at full price in yesterdays dollars with yesterdays wages.
I've never seen those folks called audiofools,with more money than sense.
