I miss my AGI 511 preamp (1976). Part of my first high end system! Used it with the GAS Son of Ampzilla and the Infinity Monitor speakers with the Walsh tweeters! Now I have two Sons and a pristine pair of those Infinity's purchased over the past several years!
Quad 57 ESLs!
There is a drive and impact with dynamic speakers but I will never forget the 57’s sound!
No! Newer gear is SO much better. Although it costs WAY more than my old gear.
I miss tape now and then.  Had a Teac reel to reel (X-7R) and an A-450, top loader cassette deck.  The rituals of threading the reels/setting the levels, etc., were “appealing” in retrospect...quaint.  They sounded good, no denying it, particularly the reel to reel.
Would I trade my Node 2i and Tidal to have it all back?

...naaaaah.
