End of the World system


So here's a question.   You and your loved ones are the last one's on earth. Your fully stocked with a cabin in the woods, renewable energy, and food for a life time.  The roads are out, and there's no place to get gas.

The remains of a high-end store are 20 miles away. What do you bring home, assuming you have to actually carry it back?

It's not really an answer to this exercise, but in my post-apocalyptic world, I probably build my whole cabin out of speakers and build the walls of other audio gear. So that's kind of the most efficient use of materials, and I get lots of choices when I want to check out various combinations. In fact, I heat the place with tube amps. LOL

How do you know that remains of the store are there?
Since I’m already close to the edge of nowhere at the base of the AZ western mountains and there is not a hi-end audio shop within hundreds of miles, I would be most happy to stick with the gear I have.
Erik thanks for the advanced notice -I guess now would be a good time to stock up on a bunch of spare KT120 tubes and a spare cartridge.
I love my place and my dedicated audio room has killer acoustics, but unfortunately, I don’t think I could survive the AZ summers without the operation of my AC. I would have to be on the scout for a new place.
Then, after picking out one of the very nice, already solar powered and very well insulated homes, scattered among the foothills of the nearby town, I would build a good cart. One capable of hauling my little Maggies, TT, CDP, and several hundred LPs and CDs, the 15 miles from my home to there. It would only be a mater of several trips to get the audio equipment and personal belongings hauled out and I’m not too worried about moving furnishings and video, as most of the nice homes in that area would already have plenty of those things. Being on the side of a low hill, overlooking town, it would have a great view and good vantage point for picking off zombies. Weekly trips down the hill, into town, would keep us stocked in non perishables and I have plenty of guns and amo for hunting. If they’re not too ripe and moldy, are zombies good to eat? Asking for a friend.
Anyway Erik, again, thanks for the heads up.....Jim
