How many system makeovers to get to where u r now?


Because I have only limited experience, I couldn't say with certainty that what I own is the best out there. But those with plenty of system makeovers can shed some light for us newbies and not so newbies.
How many speakers came and went before you have found the one that satisfies and most likely will stick.
This can apply to amps and preamps as well, and sources for that matter.

Speakers- 4 prs since 1980.
(And one set of 5.1 HT speakers)

CDPs- 5 since 1990.
(I still have 4 of these, as one is my main cdp, one is my SACD player, albeit very, very rarely used, and one is my cd recorder. The last one (my first cdp) is still in use as my cdp in a bedroom system.)

TT- 4 since 1980.

Tonearms - 5 since 1980

Cartridges - 8 since 1980

Receivers - 2 since 1980
(And one 7.1 HT receiver)

Amps- 4 since 1987

Pre-amps- 3 since 1988
(Plus one phono preamp)

Compared to the rest of the respondents, I can see I hold onto my equipment longer. (Perhaps I should show this thread to my wife! Maybe she'll allow me to make more changes to keep up with the rest of you!)
