That would be my Technics SL-110. Production ceased in 1975, so it’s at least 43 years old.
Garrard 301 late 1950's so coming up to 60 years old
Mordaunt Short MS 400 speakers from 1970 (48 yrs) - only thing changed is 4 Elcap electrolytic caps. Still singing sweetly.
My oldest items are the drivers in my open baffle speakers. All are about 65yrs old
Bass: 15" VOTT (Voice Of The Theatre) Altec 416-8A 8 ohm alnico
Midrange: 8" Saba Greencone alnico
Tweeter: 4" Grundig alnico
Its a testament to the quality of vintage gear that they are still in perfect condition.
Oh, and the 45 triodes in my amps are about 70 years old.
Grey 301, 62 yr old and not even middle aged :lol:
What a coincidence seeing this thread. I was just yesterday in a different thread mulling over the idea of starting such a thread. :)
In my case it would be the newly acquired Tannoy Eatons which was from the 70s. Have not opened them up to look at the exact date codes.
And if you include circuit ideas then my newly built Radford Sta25 dates from the 50s.

I have no idea how old it is, but it is pretty bad!
It is probably the NOS Telefunken valves in my amplification. If my memory serves me correctly they are of late 50s early 60s origin.
Garrard 401, Vintage Ortofon SPU GE, Tannoy early 12'' Monitor Golds. and 60's tubes..
I have no idea really how old any of those items are...anyone care put a date on them?
all used by an old git, spinning 60 year old Jazz records!
