Your oldest gear?

My Quad 57's.  Forgot what year they were made.  I purchased them in 85-'86?  Modified them a few years later.

I have 2 complete systems and then some additional kit.  But I guess the oldest would be a pair of Rectilinear XIa speakers that I think date to 1974.  Rectilinear was Duke Ellington’s favorite speakers but I believe he liked versions from the late 1960s. The company decided it was missing out competing with the likes of Henry Kloss so they decided to design and build a 2-way.  The woofer is sourced from CTS (Chicago Telephone and Supply).  The tweeter is a relatively inexpensive cone of about 3 inches.  On paper, one would think they would stink.  They don’t.  On side 4 of "Skull and Roses" Grateful Dead one would think they are at Gaelic Park circa 1971.  Now please, don’t think I don’t have some higher aspirations such as I own a Linn Sondek LP12.  But I sort of buy into Ivor Tiffenbrun’s theory that if you only have so much to spend, buy a dependable cheap speaker then buy a Linn.  Works for me.

About 5 JVC late 70’s turntables. I should begin giving some away 

The speakers in my main system are Infinity RS1.5's from 1980. They have outlasted multiple attempts to replace them with newer speakers.

My oldest piece of equipment….

My Todger MK1.  I had always been able to maintain it quite well for the first 70 years.

Unfortunately l feel more recently has fallen out of spec. Thinking it now underperforms compared with more modern equipment.🎢
