How much gear do you own?
Do you have multiples of amps, preamps, speakers, cables, etc?
I do, and am starting to realize it's leaning hard toward a sickness rather than a passionate hobby. Either that, or I'm getting up in age and tired of all the "stuff" I've acquired taking up so much space.
I went through a phase about ten years ago where I got tired of stereo gear and dumped most of it. I really regretted it after a few years and acquired most (and then much more) back.
But this time it feels different somehow. And I really think it has to do with my age...pushing 60.
Others go through this?
Thoughts?
Not really, I have lots of cables - digital optical, digital coaxial, balanced, HDMI and I don't have my tape deck hooked up. I generally get rid of things I don't use - my exception has been music media (LPs and cassettes, thought I burned the CDs and then sold them to Half Price Books). Anything I have I 'replace' or 'upgrade' I generally will offer to a friend/family member or donate. |
@tablejockey I love your sentiment! You can't take it with you - but you can make sure it is directed to a good home!

I may be able to help you ^there^
Back on the topic… I usually get the best gear I can afford, with the expectation it will not be replaced. But I did get some “good enough” gear, that is no longer used. Usually tuners, DVD players, CD players. Etc. |
