Your Forever Pieces? What and Why?


Pretty sure a number of members have some equipment they have owned forever or intend to where feasible.
Curious as to what, how long so far and why?

McIntosh MR74. Luxman T110.  Both upgraded by Don Scott about 10 years ago. 
Stax tube-driven headphones (Lambda Signature and 009 phones); Sonus Faber Electa Amator speakers, and Nakamichi cassette deck (RX-505). All owned (except Stax 009s) since the early 90's.
Judging on how long I've owned them:  My Conrad Johnson Premier 12 tube monoblock amps.
I bought them in the late 90's as I remember and they've been my main amplifiers since.  Such a hard to find combo of tube lushness yet focused, punchy and well controlled from top to bottom on whatever speakers I put on them.
I've had my amp since 2005 and preamp since 2006 both custom tubed pieces from Deja Vu Audio. Recapped the amp about 5 years ago and it sounds better than ever I don't see replacing either anytime soon.
