あの有名な傑作。伝説ともなっている名機。などの意味だと思いますので、legendとかlegendary audio equipmentなどの線で考えられては。

: Shogakukan entry = High-clas/high performance machine/airplane etc.,, so I guess "legendary" could be considered a mild exageration

German ME-109 Messerschmitt WWII Fighter
Model makes up quite easily as John shows us. There are FIVE versions included in the Me-109 folder along with a B-W version..
Herr Willy Messerschmitt really outdid himself with the Bf109. This incredible machine was not only a great flyer, it was a masterpiece of engineering designed to be produced quickly and cheaply by the thousands. It ruled the skies until the later versions of the Spitfire came along. Over 33,000 109s.were built?! and about 75 are still around.
