What's the best and/or favorite piece of equipment you've owned? And do you still own it?


My favorite piece(s)  are  (and I still own them) the Martin Logan Ethos lousdpeakers and Soudsmith Paua cartridge.  As far as speakers go, electrostats are my favorite and will replace them with another set of electrostats.  I'm currently eyeing MUR Audio SP1's.  These two pieces make my rig sound great.

My Klipsch Epic CF 4 speakers. I've had many very nice speakers and they are more dynamic and transparent than any of the 19 I've owned, including Klipschorns. Fourteen years and counting

Loads of good stuff.

In particular my Rega Kytes (orig) gave me years of pleasure, my Naim 32.5/110 likewise.

However, the best of all, particularly on speech and drama, were my Tannoy Berkeley’s, which I still use to this day, some 12 years later.

The company/name may be so long-ago and forgotten I couldn't find it on google (or is my memory faulty?), but the Transistronics Integrated I had prior to my Kenwood KW40 was definitely the worst piece of equipment I ever had. It was my first step-up from the fine-sounding Heathkit mono amp preamp combo I got from my dad. Did I get it from my uncle? In any case, gritty, dirty, trebly. I was a happy kid when Dad sprung for that Kenwood after we heard it at the hi-fi show.
