Who has the oldest speakers?

When my older brother came home from the service in 1971, he had a very large Pioneer stereo system. It came with some very large floorstanding speakers. I don't see him very often, but I saw him last month and to my surprise, he still has the same system, with the same speakers and believe it or not, it sounds great. He takes really good care of the system and it is in immaculate shape. That makes those speaker about 30 years old, more or less.

How about you guys?

Bought new, Fisher XP-7's in 1964. Had them in layaway for 3 months till I paid them off. Still sound good with flat bass...presently parked in the effects field of my HT setup.

1950's 10 inch Jensen in a same era Danelectro blond tolex 6V6s powered guitar amp with vibrato. Friend gave it to me free for repairing his midi pedal board and for me being his guitar tech and the stage manager at his 1998 Wamboozy Long Island Music Festival (350 miles from LI) at Snow Ridge Ski Resort in Turin, NY.
1975 Acoustic Research AR-11 with AR replacement woofers, tweeters and foam grills. Waiting for intergrated amp for this bedroom system. Served me well with a 1974 Pioneer SX-1250 receiver until I came across this site 2 years ago. You know the rest... upgrade!

My parents still have their AR-1's. I am not sure how old they are (the speakers, I mean, not my parents.)
