Boring old man audiotwat post but...
I bought a 2nd hand Technics 1210 turntable, a Rega Brio amplifier and a pair of Bowers and Wilkins DM602 speakers, new, 25 years ago, cost about a grand at the time.
The best money I ever spent*, hands down. Listening to music tonight and they still sound incredible. I've had 25 years of absolute pleasure out of this purchase, use it pretty much every day, and still I go wow, every now and then.
£40 a year so far, for incredible sound and technology I still love and enjoy as much as I did when new, 25 years after I bought it. Nothing comes close.
If anyone cares or made it this far, I'm listening to Black Origami by Jlin.
*one might argue Mrs B's engagement ring was the best money I ever spent, and you're probably right
