I Hate Moving
Regardless of looking a little dumb for posting such a topic, I was wondering if others had advice when it comes to moving a stereo from one apartment to another. My landlord died a couple months back and I received a letter from the estate attorney telling me to vacate the house that I’ve been living in for eight years. The apartment I’m moving into is actually nicer but smaller and I’ll have someone living above me. My amplifier weighs about eighty pounds and the two power supplies and battery take up a good amount of floor space. I do have the original boxes for everything except my Quad 2905 ESL’s, which I wrap in bubble wrap and carefully lay on an inflatable mattress in the back of my SUV. This method works well, I did this whenever delivering the speakers to my Quad technician. Anyway, it’s just a pain.
@perkri yeah, stereo is first. Me and a friend are taking care of that by ourselves. Then a couple of days later, the movers are taking things, heaviest objects first. I can only afford three hours of movers so after they leave, then whatever is left is on me. I have absolutely no idea how I can set up my stereo while giving the Quads a distance of eight feet from the wall. And guess what, no high end headphones so my listening hours will be in the afternoon. |
@fred60 Sorry you have to sell. You should keep the Thorens, you’ll only get a couple hundred dollars for it. |
I like moving as a general activity....try to do some everyday, unless SO has something else in mind... If I can move discretely out the door and into the street, there is that temptation, but has a tendency to be complicated later... If it's monoblocks and you object to a hand truck, I'll listen to someone else's vertebra squeak ('old war wounds"..."You're not a vet..." I will be in a moment...🤨...) *L* Only if one promises to help move mine.....but when they see That, they move out of state....(cowards....). Good luck, and don't dro...*clunk*....that.... ;) |
