Do you really think that the only reason people use vintage equipment is because of issues like economy or nostalgia?I use field coil compression drivers from the 1930's, for example, for one, simple reason. Best drivers ever made. Maybe that is hard for you to believe, but its nonetheless true.
There is a thread above in which a well respected member of the vinyl congregation has essentially boxed and shelved his expensive, modern, contemporary, state of the art, well reviewed belt drive turntable in favour of a (gasp) vintage Thorens idler. Given the fact this person has purchased about the most expensive tonearm and cartridge, do you think his choice for a vintage table was motivated by economy? How about nostalgia?
I think it might be time for you to actually post some details of your system on this board. The place is in the "inmates systems" section. It would be elucidative to see what equipment you own and use, and thus the background to your point of view. In the past, you have suggested that you have not done so, being "shy" about that kind of thing, or modest about your gear. Given the frequency of your posts, let alone their content, I don't think shyness really pertains.
