I still have my:
ARC Dual 75a- it was refurbished about 15 years ago and is presently not in use- purchased new in 1974-5;
Quad ESL- refurbished recently and now in use- purchased used in 1973;
Technics SP-10 turntable- refurbished and ready to go in vintage system, purchased new in 1973;
among other odds and ends, e.g. Decca Ribbons I purchased in the mid-’80s, Quad II amps I purchased almost thirty years ago (they are from 1961) and recently refurbished and in use in my vintage system; I still have the piezo stylus gauge (with box) that was sold by Technics. Much other stuff that I owned back in the day, new, was traded in for upgrades, e.g. ARC SP 3-a-1 for SP 10mk ii.
