How many spare cables and power cords do you have?

Today I was cleaning up my listening room and it has dawned on me that I am gathering quite a collection of cables. I thought of selling them, but then again, maybe I should keep them for testing purposes.

Just how many spare cords do I need? How many do most audiophiles have?

Two milk cartons full, nicely coiled.

I try to keep it down. Right now I have three extra power cords and two extra sets of interconnects (and perhaps one too many power conditioners). I assume that's on the modest end of this pursuit!

Two digital cables. Maybe close to ten pairs of interconnects. At least two sets of speaker cables. Who knows how many power cords.

Although some cheapos are in the mix, it's still a shitload for sure. Thanks for reminding me, I think I'll put up a bunch of 'em for sale.

Essentially none.

I keep what is best and sell the rest.

The only exception to this is power cords, as I keep the stock cords, so if I sell a product, I have to original cord.
