[nando]

well almost of all here have lived through out our young hi-fi days i am sure that memories of the "old" vintage audio must of left fond memories and pleasure of days gone by, me i have lots but some still remain in my head, and always not only remember the equipment, but the music that i listen to by them, sometimes if not most i wish i kept most of it, room not available unfortunately, still have my teac x-10r and aiwa 6900 luxman lv 85v, that is about of all my nostalgia left i wonder what your experiences are?

I have quite lot of stuff used in my teens and early 20s - some even a bit earlier. The flat does resemble a hi-fi shop at times

Lots of old Quad kit, some nice Pioneer amps and receivers, Rogers monitors, Revox B77 and loads more.

Much of it fully competitive with kit today and sometimes better.

I still often use these simply because the ergonomics are lovely, and so is the sound:
