I agree with you. I too wonder what it would cost to make a TD 124 today, or any of the top of the line turntables of yesterday.
When it comes to amp design, (tubes in particular) I think there is nothing truly new under the sun. From what I understand, the designs are basically recycling designs from the "golden" age of audio.
I do believe however, that many of the components have been improved, such as teflon caps and metal and carbon film resistors. No more paper and wax caps being made, and that is a huge improvement.
I do wonder, however, if today's electrolytics will match the lifespan of yesterdays. For example, I have several early 60's amps, and the electrolytics are still working fine, although I believe that I will need to start replacing the electrolytics in my '61 Hammond organ soon.
