How old is too old?

I'm not having any issues at the moment, but I'm thinking I will have to buy 1 more sacd player before I check out. I almost always buy used. So my question how old is too old? I see some interesting things that I would love to have, but many are 10 to 20+ years old. Thoughts?

IMHO, I would not be buying anything that involves moving parts, that is 10 years old.  Not unless refurbishing the equipment is part of the plan.

I'd say by 75 you might as well throw in the towel.

So my question how old is too old?

Buy a streamer / DAC. And no moving parts. You can get the same or better quality and have access to millions of albums for $14/month. Enjoy your old age (I am)... exploring all the music you haven’t heard.
