The one piece of gear you will never sell


So much gear comes and goes, but do you have any keepers for life? 

For me, I'll never part with my Zerostat, LP12, and MR78 tuner. I think.

No such thing as never.  if someone came with a suitcase full of cash, say one million dollars, or if you want to be really ridiculous, twenty million dollars, every piece of equipment I own would be gone immediately.

I restored a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda.  Ground up restoration, every bolt, nut, screw, etc. was either restored or new.  Beautiful restoration.  Took five years to complete.  In-violet purple.  At large car shows, people would ask me if I would sell the car.  My answer was always no.  However, if someone walked up with a million dollars in cash, that car was gone.

So, I can appreciate equipment that has sentimental value or really makes you smile and appreciate music all over again.  But, since with enough cash I know I can replace every piece I own with something better.  There is no never.

enjoy the equipment
enjoy the music and the experience
As the odds, carefully calculated, of somebody walking in my condo
with a suitcase with a million bucks to buy my Sony PS-X7 are greater than me living to 135 yrs old, that's never IMO .
Hard to imagine selling my Jeff Rowland Concentra integrated amp. Spectacular and beautiful piece of equipment.
My pair of ESS AMT tweeters.  Haven't heard anything with my tin ears that I've liked as much to bother keeping.  I enjoy my DIY Walsh's, but they're not heavy enough to weigh my ashes down when I get tossed into the French Broad River (last chance I'll have to get into a 'French broad'...actually the first to my knowledge, but that's another story...). ;)
