Do you own gear from defunct brands?

Does anybody except myself still use a Lexicon DC-1 ? I just use it for 2 channel listening but I have found it to be pure without any deformation. I have had it about 30 years and I paid a very average price and the only drawback that I know exists, is that it is subject to failure from power surges. I used to live at the beach and the hurricane power surges got me a couple of times but I got that under control now. Just wondered if anyone else still uses this old equipment.

Altec mdl 14

Audioprism amplifiers

Klyne SK 5A

All still making music

Herron stack. First gen phono pre, last gen 360 preamp, and M1 monoblocks. 

Hardly defunct, but no more new production, so yeah.

"Think once something is out of warranty, does it even matter? You can't really get service manuals anymore, most things are now surface mount and IC based. Almost no one can fix them anymore."

I don't think so. Much of the better hifi gear is still made with discrete components simply because there is still a contingent of designers and audiophiles that think they sound better. Also, more often than not discrete and surface mount are used in combination where engineers deem appropriate.

Vacuum tube hifi components which are extremely popular among a niche segment of the hobby are principally designed around discrete components and any tech worth his salt can troubleshoot them quite easily, repair them and restore them to original spec without any service documentation. Albeit there will be chassis components like transformers and such that are single sourced, likely a qualified tech can affect a repair on any other part of the circuit.

Luxman, McIntosh, Klipsch and other long-standing brands can provide or arrange to have any product they've ever made serviced and brought up to spec. You get what you pay for!
