I have many old things at my place as I find difficult to part with them.
In fact I get attached to them emotionally too!
I have got a Sony Stereo Sound which I purchased in 1986.
This is the same year when my son was born!
The system is still working great and when I searched for this model of mine, I was pleasantly surprised to see that this model of mine is now a Vintage one!
This is the picture of the Cassette Playing Deck I have which is still in wonderful condition!
May I know what is the oldest gadget you have at your place which is in working condition?

@amitkokiladitya , The mechanics say that we should use the sets once in week or so , so that the PCB will not get damaged because of the humidity! I some times start the TV for a while and shut it off!

@allen0187 , That is nice to know the LED bulbs! Do they fit into the old light socket easily?

@AKRao24 it is still working. Had to change the light bulb to a LED. Otherwise, it still looks good.

Our stereo was bought by my mother when I was in grade school that was in the early 70's. We're still using it now to listen to news.on radio.

You are absolutely correct! The quality of the sound is very nice and can compete with products with any modern tecnology!
(This set is a gold! In fact I recall spending some 21K Indian Rupees then for this set! With that amount I could get get about 50 gms then!)
