Well, I was pleased to see that I already own a couple of the products on the Stereophile list:
The Advent Loudspeaker
Thiel CS3.6
Adcom GFA-555(II) - I own two of these
It is also worth mentioning (again) that ebay has some pretty good deals on some of these collectible products. I picked up my Advents off ebay in good condition for a song, as well as a pair of AR-2AX's (which I would also consider collectible, but the Stereophile list mentioned the AR3, which arguably made a bigger impact).
I would also add that some of the Marantz receivers from the early '70's were and are some pretty impressive units for the money. I about keeled over when I asked my uncle over Christmas where his quadrophonic Marantz receiver was and he told me he threw it away! Well, needless to say, I told him that when he wants to throw out his Advents and KLH speakers, to let me know!
