A similar vintage Soundcraftsman 10 band graphic EQ.One pair of speakers are the Sansui SP3000 from 1971 in near excellent original condition. All drivers are in great shape, rarely played really loud and mostly had classical music played through them. they were my parents. My dad bought them new in Japan. I currently have them on loan to a friend of mine to use until I have room for them.
The other pair is a pair of Sansui SP1700 speakers that my dad bought used in 1988(?) at a church garage sale and they are in excellent original condition. I have those in my system right now. Very nice sounding and resolving to boot.
The Soundcraftsman EQ is approx from 1973 and I bought it used in 1992(?) for $25. It actualy works great, quite quiet for a vintage SS analoge EQ. Except for one band on the right channel that sometimes conks out, it works great otherwise.
Not the oldest gear listed, but it's old enough!
