Vintage Stereo

Anyone else collect and listen to vintage stereo gear? These are my favorite pair of vintage speakers. The Infinity Reference Standard II's. Show off your favorite vintage gear.

Not nearly as fancy but I’ve always been proud of my pioneer preamp I’ve had for about 35 years .

Love it, but what's the model number?

I bought a stereo a year ago in Spokane. I went to a man's house to buy some standard speakers. But he had the most amazing receiver collection I've ever seen. He built reinforced shelves to hold their weight, and had outlets distributed all over so that all of the receives could be turned on and lit up at one time. They were all 60s and 70s receivers. My cousin was with me, he attended concerts at the Kingdome in the 70s and 80s and would steal the posters. His jaw was wide open and I knew I was standing in front of an amazing collection. But I didn't take a picture!

The SPEC-1 is pretty fancy. They are getting around $1200 for nice ones on ebay.

I have all Pioneer too but likely older?
My speakers are the S-910's if I recall correctly, but they need to be re-coned.

The reason I can't remember is it is all packed away and hasn't been used in likely 15yrs or longer? Receiver, record player, tape deck and speakers of course.

Pioneer sound system in my car too which I purchased when I was 18-19. It was the best/loudest back then and I believe the amp was a GM or GMA-120?

My house speakers are identical to these. Just having a hard time, without digging them out, info/pics of my components.

I picked up one of these at Goodwill. They sometimes get some nice vintage items. I've tried it out and it all seems to work. The photo shown is one for sale online.
