Ok posters, what is the component in your system that seems like it won't be going anywhere soon - or maybe its your whole system? Maybe its a turntable that you are never likely to replace, or a much loved reel to reel player. In these days of upgraditus what has gone the distance?
Below is my Nakamichi 620 power amp circa '77. Its 100watts rms were a freebie from someone who did not realise its worth and it started me down the path of upgrades and a new appreciation of the 2 channel sound done well. In my current system the Nak was, until very recently, sitting between a new Conrad Johnson pre-amp and 804s speakers.
Currently the brave little Nak is fighting for survival in the amp hospital with suspected output section failure. Only time will tell if the little guy will pull through. The 804s are not happy that they are being fed by a receiver and the CJ pre is feeling quite redundant. You can post your best wishes here, or better still you can tell everyone about the component in your system that never seems to get replaced through luck, good performance or maybe just bad management
:W ops:
