Iv'e got a pair of Pass Aleph 2's that I bought back in the early 90's and have uses on and off since. I just emailed Nelson to see about getting them tuned up and he asked me what problems I was having, I told him none, I was just concerned about the age of the amps and he told me that unless I was getting excessive noise as in hum thru the speakers to just enjoy them. So that's what I'm doin.. :)
Lifespan of amps and preamps?
Hello. I have been listening to the same NAD 1240, Adcom GFA 535, and B&W dm 620s since I was 20 in 1990 (it was a big deal to buy all that as a 20 year old kid...). Other than doing a thorough cleaning on the adcom a few years back when it stopped working, I have literally done nothing to these components.
Are they totally dated, meaning past their intended lifespan from an internal component perspective? I have to say it all still sounds really good to me. But I never really listen to other systems.
Thank you for any input!
