Sansui CA-F1 and BA-F1 pre-power combo, 
partly restored, still get switched on every now and then. Still a transparent sounding combo after they warm up over an hour.
Sansui AU-505, bought new in 1975. I like it so much I bought another to run while my original is being restored/modded.
I built a Hafler 500 from a kit in 1973-4.  Back then the kits were less than the built amps, and since Hafler was a Dynaco guy, he knew kits would sell.  Replaced the on-off switch in about 1975 when the factory had us update the original one.

Had it biased the other day.  Nothing has failed and it still runs like a champ.  Repair person was totally amazed as it measured like new.

Sometimes a person gets lucky, right?

Cheers!
