How much gear do you own?

4 operating systems in a two bedroom townhouse (living room, bedroom, office and dining room) plus some bits and pieces I've collected over the years that are not all hooked up. I'm saving for a bigger house next.

I'm envious of those with the minimilist lifestyle.  

I currently own 28 pairs of speakers.  Twenty-nine if I count the desktop AudioEngines.  And most of them are mid to higher end stuff, and they all sound pretty good in my room.

I think my treated, smallish (12x16) listening room makes damn near anything I throw at it sound good.  So whenever I've attempted to pick a winner in an attempt to select gear to keep it's been a pain.

2022 I'm doing it, though.  Goal:  Just one of everything, with a backup.

Way too much gear.  But have 3 operating systems in 3 different rooms that all sound really good to me.  Lots of unused gear but I often take in unwanted pieces, test them to make sure they are working OK, and give them away to people setting up new systems/rooms.

Those times are long gone.

Since the downsizing to post-divorce condo life, I just can't justify having anything extraneous to clutter up the place.

Especially in downtown Vancouver where it's over a $1,000 per square foot.

I've sold a number of speakers and other components that I now regret selling.  I have three separate systems that I like to experiment with and plan on buying many more stereo components and tweaks thru the next several years or so. One thing for sure, I will never sell any of my treasured  electronics again.
