Nostalgia, fond memories and judgement on now vs. then equipment ?

Forgive if my spelling is subject.  I have had much in the world of high end audio.  Audio memory, nostalgia and the times of my life does impact my thoughts on the best gear I have had.  

I have had some great items and it seems that some of the ones I think of as the "best" were also owned during some high points in my life.....I guess the same can be said for cars, homes (dare I say mates?) and more. 

I guess my thoughts on many consumer products are subject to my life at the time, do you find this in your thoughts of audio, cars, homes....etc. 

"For the times they are a changin"..

I have had many sports cars and raced at one time....road races, Road America and the like,...not drag strips. 

That said, most of the great old cars I had in the past are still great old cars, but in many ways time/technology has progressed beyond them. 

I am not sure about cameras, and many other technologies, but in most cases it seems old can mean many things, but is still old. 

But of course, with us humans, old is simply experience, knowledge, better looking and other hyperboles
