When will speakers be considered as vintage? at least 25yrs old?

According to Merriam Webster, the term "vintage" relates primarily to wine and is an altered form of the French word vendage, meaning "the grapes picked during a season."

From that definition we can say that the word "vintage" has been abused and misused from its original definition. However the term "vintage" when associated with things of value is anything more than 20 years old so in effect my National EAH-65 studio headphone which I got in mint condition is a vintage item because it was released in 1967.

Well yung iba kasi bro lalo na yung nagbebenta sa mga ibang sites mukhang luma lang vintage na kaagad to think that they don't even know when was it released.

Right now I have a Pioneer s-99t (1988), victor sx-55 (1977), denon bs (unknown model), a diy fs (dual mid/bass, dual dome tweeters, dual fullrange and a single horn tweeter per enclosure) and a victor sx-a103 bs. All of them sound great to my ears but my daily driver is the pioneer s-99t, the diy fs is tube friendly and has forward mids and crystal clear highs.

Meron pa ako bro ibang speaker na di ginagamit dhil di ko nagustuhan ang tunog kaya nakatambak lng.
May dynaco na passive sub, inaalikabok lng. Ok yang pioneer cs-405 mo bro, minsan may nag-alok sa akin ng jbl century gold, 20k daw. Nataasan ako kaya di ko na inaudition.

JBL 4344
Altec Lansing A7

Sa mga reviews na nababasa ko ok daw yang jbl 4344 or any jbl monitor speakers, bibihira na nga lang sila.

Actually bro with enough funds pede nman tayo gumawa ng kaparehas ng jbl 44xx monitors. Meron pa mabibilhan ng mga.drivers nun, yung kaibigan ko na into mobile mga jbl drivers gamit nila sa mga enclosure. Dito sa pampanga pede mo puntahan ang may-ari ng musicbox, si Mr. Lin Gomez.

mga horn tweeters nila. Pati Horn diy tlaga. Malimit may paligsahan sila doon lalo na pag fiesta.
