Beloved equipment


What's up with sellers describing their equipment as "beloved" as in "I'm selling my beloved power amp..." Are people forming an emotional relationship with a bunch of electric circuits housed in metal cases? I mean it's cool with me if that's your thing, but it does strike me as a little fetish-like. I wonder if anybody will admit to it, but are audiophiles bringing home flowers for their preamps and putting them in fancy lingerie?

I used to think of them as "just speakers," but once they went outside the boundaries of the system, began helping others less fortunate than them by being active in the community and touching the lives of others......well, when I now say "beloved", I'm speaking for my whole community.

You want virgins! Now that's funny. Between the power cords and the interconnects your electronics has seen quite a bit of breaking in, if you know what I mean.
