Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile?


Many of you ask others to advise you, but the answer to so many questions is system dependent.  Why don’t you post your system on your profile prior to requesting help?

Your concern seems to me to be a difficult way for thieves to target wealthy individuals. Will they fly, or drive to your area? They will require some real muscle to move a system. Why not just use google maps, or Zillow to locate areas with large estates and find a house with a ten car garage. Oh, let’s make it someplace local, so that they don’t need a plane ticket and have local connections to dump the stolen goods.

Honestly, someone that can hack this site will go after someone in the digital domain. Make sure that you don’t use the internet for any transactions and keep your money under your pillow.

That works too except that it won't reveal exactly what is in the home.

You see, I have known three different people who had their entire home audio systems stolen, and I have heard of many more over the years. The funniest theft I know of happened during a party when everybody got quite wasted out in the back yard, and the thief just waltzed out with the living room system.

My home insurer strongly suggested I insure my system against fire and theft. Call me paranoid.

Let’s just suggest that your posts on this thread are just a prank.  You certainly don’t want to avoid posting your system on one hand and then suggest it is because your system is so very valuable.

You don’t have to be paranoid to use insurance.  I always lock my doors and am careful as to who I associate with, so being careful is just being prudent/responsible.

 

My system is mid-fi by the standards here, and I still would not like to have it stolen

"I always lock my doors and am careful as to who I associate with."

Read your statement again. You're being, if anything, more paranoid than I am.
