How many spare cables and power cords do you have?


Today I was cleaning up my listening room and it has dawned on me that I am gathering quite a collection of cables. I thought of selling them, but then again, maybe I should keep them for testing purposes.

Just how many spare cords do I need? How many do most audiophiles have?

2 PCs, 3 or 4 pairs of ICs, 2 pairs of speaker cables, at least 3 digital coaxials and one new unused optical. All are neatly colied in large clear tupperware plastic boxes. Thats just the fairly good stuff.

Unkown numbers of cheap ICs, Coaxial cable, S-video, and stock PCs. Dozens of feet of bulk speaker cable and excess 12 volt power cabling. Boxes of automotive speakers, a couple of extra car amps, a boxed up unused Rotel CD player, etc. etc.

Aww geez, I have it bad. What types are ya selling Gunbei?
Wow, that is a top-shelf box-o-goodies. My soon to be wife says I must stop or face the firing squad. Sigh.

I will probably keep this stuff around. I have new house plans, which calls for a bonus room above the garage. Keep it on the lowdown, but I foresee a second system. Monitor based with two channels. Maybe an integrated.

As far as the boxes go. I find myself walking down the isle at Lowes looking for new/different containers every time I am in the store. Do I need help or what? Well, at least I entertain myself.
