Why no Virtual System pics??

I’m surprised that not more people have pictures off their set-ups... there are very few contributors, some regular contributors, some long time members, with zero pictures of their systems..
Why do you think that is?  Are they worried that someone is going to steal their stereo because they see pictures of it?  Or are people ashamed of their systems?  
I don’t get it.  It’s much easier to understand where someone is coming from when you see their setup!

post some pictures people!!!  Sheesh


It’s like showing up to the basket ball court with no ball.  Going to the ski slopes, sittin in the lodge, talking about how awesome the powder is with no ski’s.

@mikelavigne Agreed system page traffic is not what it once was, I think the problem there is Audiogon separated Virtual Systems and the Forums to some extent. I used to see updates on systems in the forum that would lead me to systems. And yes the forums have devolved a bit but there are still pockets of enlightenment.

One of the very few positives of the Covid pandemic is folks being home and spending time taking pics and posting systems. I find myself checking in a lot more lately and leaving comments, it's always nice to get some comments if you're taking the time to show your system.

All one has to do is go back through 17 years of posts and judge for themselves.
completely agree. long time posters like you are well known and respected. and it's easy to look at posting history and see what goes with a poster. 

system pics matter; but actual posting content matters much more.
