A lot of the stuff from that era was good gear. Things went downhill when they went away from discrete components to

the LSI amps that lowered the cost but replacement has become so inexpensive that they become throw away products

when they fail. I still have my old McIntosh C-24 pre-amp, MR-71 Tuner, and MC240 power amp but it has been collecting

dust for a couple of decades and I have been thinking of selling it as the prices have skyrocketed over time. I had all kinds

of exotic hi fi gear over the years but nothing specia l for a very long time…..
