Is 1990's equipment vintage?


I think so, apparently some few are upset at this definition, and think 1990's electronics are merely "used" or "out of production."

Yes I remember lights being flashed at me in my BMW 2002 from oncoming 2002 owners
When l would go to parties back then the subject of cars would come up. I would be asked, what car do you drive? I would reply a BMW and then they would ask yeah but who makes it??? Just like when l tell people l own a VAC amp and they would say, what's a VAC???
To OP’s question, NHT classifies their first generation 1990’s line as “archived”. Next gen Speakers  are their “classics”. 
So my opinion is If it’s old and has special charm then it qualifies as worthy of being vintage. 
What is special charm? With some JBLs it’s their ability to pound out bass. Marantz, yeah ...the flywheel. Kharman Ghia shows that butt fugly is a special charm.  Phase Linear’s special charm - it must be good if it weighs this much.
Crazy Eddie’s charm was a store that looked like the back of a warehouse. My charm, musta been that Nik-Nik or Huckapoo shirt that attracted them.

if you don’t know some of the things I’m referring to I’m sure there are memebers on this forum that can enlighten.

Erik, your opening line didn’t have much umph but this thread developed nicely.
thanks.
@brownsfan Yes, a man of few words. My drivers were pretty easy to get out, sticky, but nothing a little patience didn’t solve. Are you upgrading crossovers from the originals? Curious, if there is a known upgrade I’m keen to learn more.
