Your Forever Pieces? What and Why?

Signet TK7SU purchased in 1976. 

Sound Lab A-2 electrostatic speakers. Purchased used in 1985. Refurbished in the early '90s. C.A.T. SL-1 Mk II, Used 1991. I am about to sell it, too many preamps.
Musical Fidelity NuVista Preamp, new 1998.
Musical Fidelity NuVusta 300 amp, new 1999. Thinking about selling this too.
Altec 755a speakers, used 1999, they are 61 years old.
Pink Triangle Anniversary turntable, used 1996. Linn ITTOK shortly after, followed by an EKOS.
That's the primary list, my newest stuff consists of a Lampizator DAC/Passive preamp that is only a couple of years old and a DIY Amp Camp Amp that I assembled a couple of months ago. Also a RAAL tweeter that I built into a speaker with the 755s and a pair of Altec 515s that I have also owned for around 20 or so years but never used until recently.

All of this equipment is in regular use except for the C.A.T., although that gets used occasionally too. Several years back I bought something from an A-gon member, and he was curious why I could have been a member for so long and not have more feedback. Answer, as you can probably tell, I rarely sell anything.

Acoustat Spectra 33 Electrostatic Speakers, purchased new in 1988.  My current room has never suited them, too small.  I also have a California Audio Laboratory (CAL) Alpha DAC from the early 90's which is something special.   https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/cal-alpha-info

An original Well-Tempered turntable and arm that I bought new. That would have been back in the 80's. Still, the only one I own and feel no need to upgrade at all.

ARC Classic 60 amplifier that I keep on hand as a spare. Had it gone through by a tech about a year ago. Hooked it up and it was really ... really good. Bought the Classic 60 used from a friend back in the 80’s.

Legacy Signature III’s. Had them for about ten years now ... and I will never sell them. Once a system is totally locked in, they are wonderful. My speakers for life.

Do records count? I know they can be considered as "components" as well. If so, I still have many of the jazz albums I started collecting as a kid back in the 50's. Same with 4 track reel to reel tapes.

Vegasears.
That is one neat story, even for me that would be a keeper!

I guess we can count records too.
But not tweaks ok!
