Your Forever Pieces? What and Why?


Pretty sure a number of members have some equipment they have owned forever or intend to where feasible.
Curious as to what, how long so far and why?

I scooped up a pair of DSP8000’s sl that I upgraded to se and I’m sold on dsp now. A lot of speakers have passed through this room and any bass below 70 hz was a problem and made most speakers sound clinical. My room doesn’t seem to affect the output from these so they’re going to be difficult to let go.
KTM 1290 super duke se decat sounds beautiful. :-I.  I've moved several sota speakers thru my system in the last 4-5 years but the pair that isn't for sale is the VA beethovens.
I’m tempted to paint my SDR Ducati red, think anybody’d notice?
Straying for a moment I came very close to a 2014 multistrada when my dealer had the annual fire sale, but I got caught up in the hype of the sdr and never even took the MS for a demo.

After reading more of this thread and getting a better feel for it I want to throw my bose 901 VI after finally reading the instructions and suspending them from the ceiling 2’x2’x2’ in the bass lock and dynamic punch from a realistic 55wpc receiver was fascinating! Had a nosey neighbor not introduced himself and then me to ’hifi’ I would be living in ignorant bliss enjoying music instead of constantly analyzing my system for shortcomings.
