How long do you or should you keep your gear.

I grew up in Amish country. Might trade in the horse and buggy someday for an upgrade. Oh and wind power rules! Very clean, no noise … except the darn wind always howling.

McIntosh MA 6100 and JBL 65s purchased in 1979 still jamming.  Thorens TD 160, TD 124 and 125 still spinning.  I love vintage.  I have some newer stuff too but it is also fast becoming vintage.  Pretty soon, now is going to be a long time ago.

When I hit the 10 month mark  the tremors begin to flare.

You keep them until ASR comes up with something that “measures” better 😉😉

I'm happy with my vintage (mostly) gear. Sometimes envy the guys buying new toys but I've no idea what I'd buy. Feel free to suggest ideas.
