Would you sell half your vinyl collection to get great equipment ?

I would if I had a substantial one. And don't say your system is already great, there is virtually no limit, including replacing the house.

Ha! I bought five records this week already. I definitely spend way more on music than equipment...

@nkonor - I found the same. When my room wasn't treated and I hadn't dialed in my system somewhat, mediocre recordings sounded like rubbish. Now everything sounds at least half decent unless a truly atrocious recording.

Not. The best of the best ain't crap without your music

I would never part with my albums. What good is a great system if you don’t have that album that just popped into your mind that you want to hear. Bought 8 albums this week putting me over the 1,200 mark and still growing.

My answer is maybe.

I have some that simply aren't that great anyway.  I wonder why I bought them years ago.

However, I do have may that are really nice.  Blue note, etc. 

I just finished cataloging my album collection.  My insurance agent told me that it is a good idea to catalog all my equipment, albums, etc. in the event some event happens.  He said that many times, insurance companies don't pay out on certain things because some don't have any record of what they had and condition. He also said that in disaster situations, many people actually don't remember everything they had.

Clothing, jewelry, watches, audio equipment, book collection, etc. 

I have taken photos of everything and cataloged them also. 

But, some albums I'm keeping.  Others, yes, I can get rid of. 

enjoy
