This winner is half right.  I blatantly copied from another site the
following:

MORE COMPLEX THAN WE REALIZE 
According to Sir George Grove in his famous Dictionary of Music and
Musicians, 1889: "The organ is, together with the clock, the most complex of
all mechanical instruments developed before the Industrial Revolution. Among
musical instruments its history is the most involved and wide-ranging, and
its extant repertory the oldest and largest...No other instrument has
inspired such avowed respect as the organ." 

The answer I was looking for was the organ.  Being married to an organ
performance major makes me aware of such obscurities.  

Now, if I can get her to quit trying to find out things about my addiction
from Ken, I'll be OK.........
