I guess the most vintage I still use are my AR-3a pair. The midranges and tweeters were long ago blown by using underpowered equipment, but the 12" woofers survived. I disconnected the internal crossover, and use the pair as a subwoofer in my family room. Second is my pair of DCM Time windows that I use as my surround speakers in a 7.1 (the rear surrounds are M&K S-125s). The front mains are Carver AL-IIIs and the sub is a Sunfire True Subwoofer Mk.II (center is an M&K S-125C). That, and along with a pair of Radio Shack Realistic Minimus 7s I have in my office, I'd say most everything is vintage except for the M&Ks (also have an M&K MX-125 Mk.II and a pair of S-80s in the office).
