Money wise. Eg a/d/s PQ20, which i bought for RM600, was sold for around USD700 when it was launched more way back in 1989. Taking into account inflation etc, that very huge equivalent money now, maybe around USD2,500 or equivalent. That would be equivalent to nowadays class of Sinfoni, Brax, Genesis, Audison etc. The design may be old but as far as i know, there's not much design change for amp over last decades or so except for perhaps class D.
I might be biased because i love ol'skool due to its cheaper price but i think money well spent and who know, it has the built quality and repairable, can last long enough to pass over to your kids haha.
Want to know much better on the craziness of ol'skool stuff in the US market, go to Diymobileaudio website. I can provide the link later

The ol'skool amps are generally hand crafted and well designed, use quality comp with high tolerence level and indivually soldered. Recently, i just repaired one channel of my 19-year old Soundstream D100ii because one of the caps dried off. Costs only RM50.
