what made you get into high end gear.


im pretty sure most if not all of us here have been music lovers & system owners off & on our entire lives so the love of good music isnt really what im lookin for.

what really got me thinking about this was i was lookin at the virtual systems a while back when i read where another member gave a reason why he got into high end gear & it floored me,i swear what this guy wrote coulda been a page from my life.

i guess what im askin is was there a special moment or a certian peice of gear that caused you to take the leap from store bought systems into the world of high end gear.

i'll wait to post my reasons as i dont want to make the thread take a certian course.

The sound of a KLH Model Eight receiver system.....started it all. (I got turned on to the sound of tubes)

Now I have a McIntosh MC275 amp, C22 pre-amp, MR71 tuner, Rega Planet 2K, Music Hall MMF-7 & Vandersteen 3a Sigs.

In my youth, I did have a pair of Ohm L speakers... Did they count as "high end" ??
