members and their systems
for the short time I have been on here, I see that members will start a thread asking about a certain piece of equipment or speakers.. they will then buy that piece of equipment / speakers, start a thread about it saying how good it is and then next thing you know, they are starting another thread asking about another piece of gear as they are looking for something different. what happened to that piece of gear that was so great ?
i get the whole buying thing....but where are members getting the money to do all of this stuff ? do they not have other bills such as rent / mortgage payment, car payment, other bills to pay for also ?

I am amazed at the number of people I hear about on this site that have $100K invested in their current system (not including losses taken on past gear traded in) and how many are just counting one system that they use and not multiple components they switch in and out. I would think that most $100K systems are bought by multimillionaires/billionaires who don’t spend a lot of time evaluating, thinking about or listening to their systems as they may be in a 2nd or 3rd house. They probably have a designer type making the decisions for them, and I would be shocked to see them posting on this site. Please prove me wrong so I know that the equipment is being enjoyed. I hate wasting anything and not using something that a creator/designer of components is a waste. Just like cars that never get driven and are held for investments. Dr. Porsche and Mr. Ferrari would be turning over in their graves. |
Dr Porsche rests serene. His vision is still very much alive and well. https://youtu.be/bXRyy-RBuzc?t=598 |
