All time classics? Your top 3 or 4?


Most of us here on AudiogoN have had more than our share of components and speakers...so:

What items do you feel are "all time classics"?

These would be audio products that set the standard for others and are (likely) even now well thought of.

I will start things off with:

1. The Dahlquist DQ-10
2. The Large Advent
3. The Conrad Johnson ART pre-amp.
4. The Classe CAP-100 integrated.

(I could/should have mentioned others...but that's why I started this thread!).

Many fond memories.The Well tempered TT.
ARC SP3 until my Spectral DMC 10 moved in.
Quicksilver 60 watt mono amps. The original 1980 version.
Loved my Celestion 600s. So much so that I sold my Snell type A.
The original CLS. Had a love hate relation with this speaker. Apogee Duetta. CJ PV5. Very colored but very enjoyable.
The first Electrocompianet 25 watt amps. Wonderful sound when they weren't blowing up. No digital was allowed at that time. I wonder what I would think of this gear today?
Right back at you Trelja. Thanks so much for your Email that I will forever treasure. As always, I'm in your debt.
Garfish post is dead on. Can you do any better than what Garfish has suggested, especially considering so little $$$ and such big rewards. I would like to add one more. The van Den Hul Cartridges years ago. bet their still great today.
