Do we love our components more then ourselves ???

Musicians have said it once that their instruments are a part of their body. It's the same with us. I've never trusted any moving company's services for my components as well. Wood can definitely alter in different temperatures and I won't have it. I intend to keep my equipment for a very long time. 

You're not the only nut!

When I've moved I packed the equipment, albums and digital discs myself to keep them organized, but other than the turntable and the computer server I let the movers do the moving.  I never worried about whether the van or storage was temperature controlled because I didn't see any benefit over the time period the movers would hold my possessions (a few days).

When moving entire trucks can disappear, catch fire, get involved in highway accidents, be vandalized, etc.  Bad things can happen so take plenty of pictures and buy insurance.

And no I don't love my components, but my music collection is a different story.

When musicians talking about their instruments being part of the body, I wonder which part of the body they really have in mind. Or parts.
Musicians are truer nuts than audiophiles.
Whenever moving I drive my music collection, but I don't have thousands of titles. So yeah audiophile stuff is very valuable. But for me not as valuable as my custom knives. Speaking of body parts, right?

Very true, inna. I have to decide which of my vintage snare drums I want to be buried with me. My 1920's Ludwig & Ludwig Standard, my 30's Ludwig Anniversary, my 50's Slingerland Radio KIng, or my 60's Ludwig COB Supraphonic? Or, if I lose some weight, all of them?!

Delivery of my obsession is only 5 days away.Man, I miss my music.
bdp24 thats a lot of Lps and Cd's and along with other treasures how do you allocate the time?
Thanks guys for letting me know I'm not the only nut.
I'm sure there are many more of us but I guess they chose not to post
