Funny you should make that remark about an old radio being an "old friend"...I sometimes catch myself referring to my collection as "my friends."
Reminds me of a comment Edward G. Robinson once made about his art collection:
"Late at night, ...I go into my living room and sit down among these quiet friends, and we study each other very gravely, and I hope with mutual pleasure."
