How much does your system retail for?

$23,000 - $24,000 I estimate. (Two channel, this does not include TV, VCR, etc.)

Please, keep the exagerations to a minumum, do not count CD's, equipment you have bought and sold, is packed away that you don't use anymore, etc..

Put the total first so it shows up at the begining of your post.

This is just for fun and curiosity of the diversity on here, don't take it to seriously. Simply evaluate what the retail value of your system is.

Interesting to read all this. I've spent around 11-12 k, or no, I should say: my current system costs around 11-12 k, but I have spent more. Funny thing is, it took me around 20 years to get to this, and Ì don't think I will spent much more (even if I could afford it, which I don't.....). But, in a small attempt to make my johnson a bit longer, I think the software part (cd/lp) is worth around 25 k. Now am I allowed to join the club? :)

Well,let's see if I fold my johnson, then I will be more competitive!I'm up yo $45,000.However,that includes a $15,000 50" plasma monitor and my system will stay 2 channel, for fear that in 2 years I will wake up 1 night in a terrible sweat to see if my 22 multi-channel system is still downstairs.

Let's see, about $11,000 retail. Actual cost more like $7,500, which is about 68% of retail. Wow, not bad. I'm glad I took the time to do this. Makes me feel much better, although it won't help convince my significant other.
