guys & gals: ya' know it's a lot cheaper if your collection compulsion involves software rather than hardware. me, i have about 5k lp's and 1.3+k cd's. roughly 400 lp's (mostly mfsl's and other "audiophile" albums) and 100 cd's (nearly all promo's and pre-releases) have never been opened or played. may sound crazy, i know. but i betcha' my stuff's appreciated in value a great deal more than your stuff. admittedly, i'd like to have 6 or 8 systems comparable to my "main" and only setup. but i don't have the $$ or the space (all that software, ya know) -kelly
