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.

What your system retails for and what you pay are very different I hope. Thank goodness you can buy used on Agon. I would have to guess its entirely too personal to reveal what you spend but high end seems to have price points just like everything else. $1,000 $5,000 $10,000. There is no magic number I would venture to guess that most sane Agoners spend about $5-10,000 for their primary system going by the prices charged at retail, otherwise pick a number. $2,000 CD/TT 2-5K for amps similar numbers for speakers all new full priced.Nah make that $15-20k total for the "audiophile" $1,000 for the newbie.
$55

I got a good sounding sony cd player, and AKG k-300 haedphones, and the sound is pretty darn good !
No room acoustics to worry about, so it sounds like a concert stage - in my ear.

I am planning on getting a sony MP3 - add convenients of accessing my library in a second.

And I am adding a headphone amp - Class A for $140. This will further enhance the sound - further extension on the buttom.

Anyone without a proper room acoustics should consider getting a good headphones - will reward.
MSRP $30,700 for main system, but nearly all components were bought on Audiogon for a total cost of $11,400.
