I don't feel like I'm that familiar with any one stretch of twenty-five years to know real well but I think I've read and enjoyed the most SF novels from about 1955 through 1979 (+/- five years). There are a lot of exceptions and I read more recent stuff mostly now but from that period I've read multiple books from Silverberg, Dick, Clarke, Farmer, Niven/Pournelle, Sturgeon, Heinlein and some others. The height of that period for me seems to be about 1964 to 1973.
