What's vintage in your system?

[westcott]

I have a pair of Altec Lansing 887A CAPRI speakers that were made in 1974. I bought them for 5 bucks at a swapmeet, and they work perfect! The surrounds aren't rotted or anything. This is my only piece of vintage gear, but if I see anymore deals like this Ill pick up more. Here's a link to an ad featuring my speakers - http://www.lansingheritage.org/image...home/page3.jpg They are the smallest ones shown, and are listed as "d" on the list.

I have a pair of Altec Valencias that were bought in 1965! I retired them to my master bedroom after I upgraded my home theater.

Unfortunately, I was not able to integrate them into the new system. Just too old, to hard to find, and too big! They are still in great condition and are still used for two channel listening.

Photos are here! His and Her Room!

P.S. Our home theater just made the March issue of Audio Video Interiors so take a run over there if you get a chance.
