An audio component you just can't let go

Technics SL1301 DD changer turntable will play 6 stacked lps. I have all of the original accessories. 6 record changer spindle. 45 spindle. Bought it for $100 Aa a garage sale. sale in 95 in the original box.

My trusty Aragon 8008 BB Amplifier

with a bunch of upgrades,

Also my Sony CDP 707esd CD player.

I have to list equipment that was lost in a house fire this year as equipment I would have never sold or willingly parted with. a pristine pair of VMPS tower II SE speakers that served as the mains in the theater room and in equally high status was a pair of VMPS larger subwoofers. Each sub was blessed with a 12" and 15" driver plus a 15" PR. That is a lot of cone area. I had a carver 1.5t that had been restored driving the main speakers and a pair of AR-3a that had been rebuilt to new specs for rear channel speakers driven by a Carver PM-900 that was in good shape when I got it. A yamaha t85 tuner as well as my 2nd and 'keeper' turntable Technics SL-d1. I had an aging Yamaha 6 ch receiver that I liked very much. Not much power in stand alone mode but it worked well as a pre-amp. Replacing all of that now is going to prove a daunting task.

For me, my timeless component is my Scott 350D tuner. My area still has good, even vital FM radio, and I love the way this tuner presents the music - rich and colorful and absolutely engaging. When it is a live broadcast of music, it might be my most true-to-life piece of equipment.
