Check out Stereophile's Hot 100 Products at http://www.stereophile.com/showarchives.cgi?709 from the magazine's fortieth anniversary issue (November 2002). It lists what the editors consider to be the 100 most notable products in the history of the high end. It includes popular classics I had forgotten.
Which Classic Componets Would You Collect?
I asked this question in a different way in another thread and didn't get any responses. Because I'm a collector of many things, enjoy the hunt for new treasures, and have recently caught the audiophile bug, (I've purchased three tube components from Space-tech, the Sony SCD-777ES CD transport, Totem Wind speakers, Magnum Dynalab MD-90, Linn Sondek LP-12 and some other equipment) I would like to know what would you purchase for audio component(s) that either are already classics or that you believe will become classics and very collectable over the next ten to twenty years?
In this list, I would assume the Linn Sondek LP-12 would be considered a classic and because of this I'm also assuming that it's value as a piece will not diminish much over time. Maybe the Sony SCD-1 will fit in here, because I think that it was the first class A SACD player and may still be the best out there. I would be curious to see your choices.
