Thrift Store Stereo Buying Tip: Black vs. Silver

When it comes to buying thriftstore stereo components, I've noticed something:  black stereo components seem to work better than silver metallic ones.  At least, that is the way it has worked out for my purchases.


Why?  I think most of the black components that I find are from the 1990 - 2005 era.  Silver components are typically from the 1960s and 1970s.  There seems to be more life left in newer gear.
