The longest you have owned any gear?

I moved from casual listener to one who is enthusiastic about hifi back in 1996 with the purchase of a pair of Canton monitors.  Those speakers stayed with me all the way until 2010!  Other equipment has come and gone more quickly.  The piece I’ve had the longest in current system is also my turntable, bought in 2011 if memory serves.

My Raysonic CD128 player, 11 years now. It's been a absolute joy spinning my discs in this day and age of digital streaming.  

There is just something very 'sexy' about a player with top-loading operation. 

 

I'm still using the McIntosh MR-80 tuner that I bought new back around 1980.

My 1st cd player, a Sony ES, from 1988 to 2004.

Ahh, this thread is right up my alley!

Back in 1990 put together a 2nd system which included a Counterpoint SA-5, BEL 1001, and Spendor SP-1's. Today the Spendors, and the BEL still are in use in my main rig. For full disclosure however, they will be challenged soon.
Also have a Well Tempered Classic bought new I think in 1986 that I have stored away since 1995. Does the Well Tempered count?
