How much does your system retail for?

$12K and about $6K in equipment not used as main rig.

I just realized that I was the only Audiogon member not on this thread...now Im happy! Thanks Albert. Oh yeah...about 35K.(12K in analog)

$44k if bought new. Much less here on the Audiogon. About the same as 10 seasons of football tickets, which puts it in perspective. About what it costed us to run a 1973 beechcraft bonanza for about 300 hrs/ year; think Audio is expensive, try aviation!

Well, with new speakers, pre-amp and cables I am just a few pennies under $50,000. How did that happen? Those numbers just sneak up on a person. Don't tell my wife!!!

Right around $10,100 retail, give or take. Actual out of pocket is more like $7,000 thanks to a couple deals and some dumb luck. This in an interesting topic, while adding it up I acutally thought it would be more! Still not too shabby for a guy in his early 20's!

Figure on this number doubling once I get the speakers I *really* want and upgrade my very mediocre CDP. Figure on half again in tweaks and mods I'd like to do... to be honest, more of my money goes to my home recording studio...probably about double what my hi-fi is worth, and it's nowhere near done, either.

Maybe I should go buy some lotto tickets, lol...
