How much gear do you own?

60 coming up.

Only 1 turntable.

But 5 pairs of speakers. 9 headphones. 4 Dacs. 4 USB/SPIDF converters. 9 amps.

Time to let most of them go. Noticed lately that resell price has dropped dramatically.

I have three rooms full of audio gear and guitars! Enough to equip a store! Too much is never enough! 

Had enough equipment for three systems plus. Upgraded my speakers and realized the potential of my main system. So, this past month, I’ve sold a ton of gear, the proceeds of which will now go into my main system. In fact, I’d down to deciding on amps, then I’d like to think I’m done for awhile. Of course, picking up a new preamp this weekend, I heard a pair of Rockport Cygnus. Holy cow!  I have the sickness, don’t I?

I am now getting close to seventy. I upgraded before retiring… and was happily able to do my biggest upgrade a couple years ago after retirement. During this cycle I traded in stuff at each purchase. This had the advantage of giving my dealer discounts that would otherwise not been possible. Got rid of the extra turntable, $2K pairs of interconnects (3)… 2 B&W 800 subwoofers, etc. Yeah, it is starting to get to be the time of life to getting rid of all that stuff you will probably not use and clutters your life… and having a system or two that are the very best you have achieved.

I can’t tell you how great it is to sit down each day in front of the very best system I have heard… one that reflects my appreciation of music, one that actually looks amazing. It is really rewarding. One of the things the 75 hour weeks over the last fifty years has earned.
