An audio component you just can't let go

Thorens TD150 mkII - I have demoed a fair number of new turntables costing up to three grand and have not been tempted to change out this old Thorens.  I like what Rega Planar 8 and a Well Tempered table offer, but not enough to cough up the cash.  The TD150 mkII is sitting on Mapleshade isolation system, which is definitely an improvement, and I am using a Nagaoka MP-500 cartridge which is a good match for the stock arm on the Thorens.

I have two Dynaco ST 35 amps in my closet that I purchased many moons ago. I can’t exactly remember the speakers I used with the first one, but the midrange as I recall was magical at the time. I bought a second when I saw it, well because, I saw it and even at the time didn’t come up for sale often. 

It couldn't be that magical if it's sitting in your closet.

@roxy54 It was at least 30 years ago and it is a very specific amp if you know anything about it. Thanks for your comment though.

Rotel 991AE CD player. Rotel statement piece with famous Black Gate caps galore. It is as great today as it was the day i bought it by reproducing redbook format with both detail and warmth.
