How old is too old?


I'm not having any issues at the moment, but I'm thinking I will have to buy 1 more sacd player before I check out. I almost always buy used. So my question how old is too old? I see some interesting things that I would love to have, but many are 10 to 20+ years old. Thoughts?

You could always buy 2 new  and keep one for when the cd transport breaks. I love cd players. Sometimes they quit and have to unplug and do a hard reboot.sometimes they throw a fit and won't play certain discs.they skip but don't jump rope. I googled favorite cd players yesterday and found a blog with 40 pages of people's opinion about bought a certain used one but many people stated transport problems.that saved me some money. I must have 10 or so of these all currently working.some have tubes,carver ,accuphase musical fidelity, bat, mcintosh mcd 12000 tube or solid stateect. I like that one.some you can turn the tube stage off go solid state. It is known the old phillips cd 1 transports fails often .my marantz sacd 10 is about 4 k on the used market now. It's been kind to me.enjoy the search and for the streamers I have some high end of that with dac but member the cd player had dac in the beginning.
