What % of your 2 channel rig(s) is over 10 years old

[candyliquor35m]

Please only count the components that you have hooked up and use on a fairly regular basis (about once a month, sometimes more, sometimes less).

Please don't count wires or cables or power conditioners or phono cartridges, etc.

Round to the nearest choice.

Do we count each speaker as one unit?

Do we count each speaker as one unit?

No. One pair is one component.

Are specialty tubes considered a component?

[candyliquor35m]

Are specialty tubes considered a component?

I would prefer not. Vintage tubes could be another poll for someone to do.

Rig 1 = AR turntable, Carver C-1 pre, Carver SDA/490t CD, Carver Silver 9t monoblocks and Carver ALS Platinum speakers, all 20-25 years old.

Rig 2 = Carver C-1 pre, Carver TX-11a tuner, (2) Carver M-500t amps, pair Carver AL-III speakers all over 20 years old and an Oppo 970 SACD/CD/DVD player 2 years old. This rig is used for my home theatre rig and will eventually have a Sunfire TGP so I can hook up my LSi9's as a rear channel.

Are interconnects a component?

[zingo]

Everything in my rig is older than 10 years except my computer and my amp since I recently built it.

[candyliquor35m]

nope, not wires or cables or power conditioners or tubes or caps :D

[steveinaz]

Ok, gotta change my answer. I've got a 30yr old Pioneer receiver and 34yr old 8-trcak player coming soon! Yeah baby!

[ND13]

Not trying to be a dick, but why does any of this matter?

[danger boy]

now you need to start a thread on what % of your two ch rig is over 20 yrs old :eek: :p

[madmax]

Do magic bricks count as a component?

[mhardy6647]

In the main hifi in the living room, everything but the cables, CD, DAC, and tt are vintage. Some of it is as old as I am (and I am pushing 50)...

[jakelm]

The tags to your threads are just hilarious.

Some times I dont even read the thread..I just shoot down to read the tags...:p


Oh and I'm about 50% vintage. Speakers and Hafler amp, I'm not quite sure of the year on my B&K amp. Thats about it.

[zingo]

Do the vintage caps on my vintage SL2000s count?

[jacob.simpson]

can i know what reason this poll is being taken

[candyliquor35m]

the same reason that the price of tea in china is important :D

[madmax]

As of april 12 2008 the price of a small cup of tea at Si zhu xiang tea shop in Beijing was 2880 Yuan, or around 260 € or 410 USD.

Good luck; he generally doesn't answer questions, he only asks them. I haven't read through the thread (for various reasons), but I doubt if he even answered his own poll.
