How many pair of speakers do you own?


Since I am a self proclaimed speaker nut, I was trying to justify to my wife that having 5 pair of speakers is normal for an audiophilic addict. Curious also about what type, Dynamic, Planar, Single Driver etc; If you are member of this sight, you probably have a mania towards some component or other. Mine is Loudspeakers, which I learned early are 70% of your system. To me they may be >> 80%

6 pairs that matter. There's a bunch of stragglers around here that aren't worth talking about, and eventually will be liquidated.
Why? there are probably 2 basic reasons -
1) There are multiple rooms in my house (plus a vacation house) that I want to be in at various times and don't want to be without music.
2) I enjoy the contrasting qualities of different speakers/systems - I guess I'm just a hardware geek.
WOW, I CAN'T BELIEVE THE GREAT RESPONSES AND AMAZING # OF SPEAKERS YOU GUYS HAVE,. . .
well the thing that we aren't talking about which makes this even more decadent is that most of these sets of speakers have a full complement of electronics to drive them. Oh, and what about the spares that are in the closet?
