BEST 90's Audio Gear that holds its own today.


Your list if any.
lush
Rowland Model 6, 8Ti and 9Ti solid-state amps. Rowland Coherence II solid-state preamp.

There is a lot of gear from the 90's that is still very competitive, especially amps and preamps. I think it's fair to say that the major advances have mostly taken place in the realm of digital, which makes sense, as CD players are computers (and thus generally getting better all the time).
With the exception of digital products, anything that was competitive in the 90s should still be quite competitive now. it's not like there have been any fundamental advances in sound reproduction in the past 15 years. A lot of worthwhile refinements, but nothing earth shaking.
I agree with Onhwy61...pretty much everything should still hold it's own, maybe even some of the digital stuff?

I own some 90's gear so will mention those:

Krell Ksa-250/Amp
Apogee Duetta Signatures/Speakers
Audioprism Mantissa/Tubed pre-amp
