Speaker Fetish

Yes, we are sick. When I day dream about my retirement home in Maui I will probably never own it is mostly about the stereo I will (won't) have there. Tireguy, if it's just speakers with you, your not that bad. If there is a shrink on this site please help us.

It's bitch aint it! I'm waiting on some speaker cables for my HT rig now, don't really even need em, well yeah I do sortof. I've got my face pressed against the front window searching for brown trucks. Sometimes when they rudely pass by I chase em down, they used to freak out but now they just speed up and scream MAYBE TOMORROW!

Fetish! You guys are not kidding!!!. Ask my wife and kids. I simply hug my big Dunlavy V's almost everyday! I know where each(400+) of my CDS is. But can't care for the home video ( kid's evolution..) collection, even though that should be the priority. Ya I can relate to UPS truck stories and the extra cables you don't need but just have to have it just in case.
FACE IT, WE ARE SICKKKKKK.

The fetish never leaves either. I thought I was over it. HA. I was hardcore from about 1987-1994. About '94 I realized I was so busy working and coaching youth sports (3 boys) I had no time. So I downgraded (GASP). I bought nothing until 2001. I decided I wanted to integrate audio with video so I needed a new preamp. Next thing ya know I have new preamp/processor, amps, digital processor, transport, speakers.... Oh no I'm hooked again. I love it,
but my family doesn't understand. They think I'm nuts. Well I probably am, but at least I'm not alone. Seven years on the wagon and now I'm a lush again. God I missed this.

Think of this as a "roast". I tried hard to offend everyone. Some of you just made it tooooo easy for me.
