Fess Up How much have you spent on this Hobby??

Well, I've had the audio bug since I was a teenager and I witnessed first hand the emergence of high end audio as it was introduced in the market by manufacturers such as Audio Research, McIntosh, Crown, Revox and many others. I couldn't get enough of it and even went to Hope, Arkansas to meet Paul Klipsch in person. I (of course) had an analog rig for decades before getting into digital. I've changed out systems multiple times and have now incorporated HT into the mix as well. All told, I probably have spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 150K or more at this point... and really have no regrets!! Hard to imagine life without the world's greatest music. A blessing of the highest order!

Gross or net?
Back in the day, I would buy to try. Of course, many here remember that, back then, it was a lot easier to sell gear that didn't work out. Sometimes you could even sell for more than you paid. I am thrilled with the sound of my current system and am pretty much "done for now" with respect to new gear and upgrades.
Honestly, even though it has been fun, I would rather have the time back that I have invested, than the money.
