Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System?


Putting security and personal safety issues aside, do you share with others how much you have invested in your system?

I can see cases when we share with those who are generally interested what the "tariff" is for superb audio reproduction. Or, those who are already know how tall you have to be to ride the ride.

Can you think of any other reasons (accountants, lawyers, insurance, etc)? Afterall, when your spouses second cousin pulls in the driveway in their Minivan, bragging about fact that you have $10k invested in cables may not be the best way show common interests?

What say you?

Ronboco, I have been “auditioning” recliners for the past week and am about to pull the trigger on an awesome chair for the man cave .  They ain’t cheap , but I spend so much time in that room the purchase is totally justified 

I don't mind sharing that information, depending on who's asking.

I read once that you're considered an audiophile when your system costs more than your car, so when I bought my recent car (which city a little more than my system) I had to upgrade my system :-)

If anyone comments about it being a "waste of money," I really don't give a damn. It's my passion.
