How much gear do you own?

Do you have multiples of amps, preamps, speakers, cables, etc?

I do, and am starting to realize it's leaning hard toward a sickness rather than a passionate hobby.  Either that, or I'm getting up in age and tired of all the "stuff" I've acquired taking up so much space.

I went through a phase about ten years ago where I got tired of stereo gear and dumped most of it.  I really regretted it after a few years and acquired most (and then much more) back.

But this time it feels different somehow.  And I really think it has to do with my age...pushing 60.

Others go through this?

Thoughts?

Too much!! Yeah, I've got multiples of amps, headphones, speakers, cables, tubes, etc etc etc... Some are up for sale now on Audiogon or USAudiomart, and some need to be!  I've got so many empty boxes for gear in storage right now, 'cause they won't all fit in my apartment!
