Is 1990's equipment vintage?


I think so, apparently some few are upset at this definition, and think 1990's electronics are merely "used" or "out of production."

I hear what you are trying to say, but I don't think that I'm going to rely on what a manufacturer does for the convenience of organizing it's online support as definitive here. :)
Who Cares?


Me, I care.  I'd like to ask people what they think of when they think of vintage.  Specifically what the cut off is.  Like, I think 2010 gear is NOT vintage yet.
Well, now we are arguing whether things are an antique or merely old. :-)

Bose 901's - OLD.

Come at me, bro.
But 1970's was vintage in the year 2000.  It's 2020.  Shouldn't we move the bar?
Nothing but audiophile curiosity and a desire to interact with other audiophiles.  :-)  I made the claim that a CJ Premiere 12 was the best vintage amplifier, and that was challenged in part due to being too new.
