Around the same age. Have yo-yo'ed countless times with the upgrade/downgrade beginning well before there was an audiogon. I'm concluding with an integrated amp, set of speakers, decent cables, modified disc player and music server/dac. I have a portable setup for travel, but my travel these days is usually for a funeral and those hotel/motels rooms can lonely places without a music respite.
At What Age Does An Audiophile Buy His Last Amp?
.
I am 60 years old. I have bought and sold audio equipment for years while trying out gear to get the perfect blend for my system. At 60, I think I may have one more shot at a major overhaul of my system. Whatever gear I have after this next overhaul is the gear I will ride into the sunset. Geez, I hope I'm not 75 still trying to squeeze that last 3% of sonic excellence out of an equipment upgrade purchase.
I think I'm going to have to draw the line at 65.
