The longest you have owned any gear?

Not counting accessories such as a Zerostat which I bought eons ago, the one piece of equipment I own which I've had the longest is my turntable- 19 years now. 

What's been your experience?

 elate,

I know that it's a 100 mile trip, but I would recommend Cornell Smith, (audiodoctor.biz) I have used him for everything since I moved to AZ in 2011. He's really good, and his prices are fair. He's also organized and doesn't take forever to fix things. His # is 480-759-3724.

Good Luck!

Silverline Sonatina speakers. 14th year. Still sounding great. I replaced the binding posts after lengthy phone call with owner Alan Yun. Great guy to work with.

I have a BT-1 preamp, EQ-1 RIAA equalizer, and 50 watt AMP-1 still in use from 1974. All built by the Quintessence Group from Sacramento.  I switch the preamp out with a BT-2 from Audionics of Oregon circa 1980, still sweet!  The EQ is especially useful as it was designed around the inflection points on the RIAA record curve.  They  are in use in my office system, main system is newer stuff.
