New speakers or new car?


ever notice it’s easier to spend $50,000 on speakers than $50,000 on a new car? Why is that. Is it because my living room is not big enough for a car?

Seriously, I need a new car. So maybe I need to come to terms with that and somehow find a way for it to be easier to spend a lot of money on a new car. Maybe it’s because a speaker doesn’t come with annual recurring costs like insurance and all the gasoline or electricity you gotta put into it.

Or maybe I just do both.

Years ago my uncle told me you spend a lot on stereo equipment ,but  at lease you can't crash it...I can't afford $50,000 for a car or $50,000 for speakers...I'm retired and have to watch my money....New Album prices are nuts to...so I buy used car,speakers and albums ....don't forget cheap cds...case closed.

We listened to it all.treated all that came in the hospital worked with many social workers ,nurses,scrub tecs ect. It took the whole team to save people day and night. My favorite was the vets cuz they would order extra food on thier tray and save it for us surgeons cuz we were in the op room all day the cantina was closed we could not leave. Bless them to this day for feeding us. Enjoy life's ventures and the music.

No, I've never noticed it's easier to spend $50 k on loudspeakers than $50K on a new car because I've never even considered spending that much on either item. But if I needed a car, I'd buy a car. I don't see any audio component as a need. It's not my money, though.

There was a time in the early 2000's when my bikes + my wife's bikes, cost more than my car!  NOT motor bikes.

At the time was racing (up mountains) as an ultra veteran.  My Audio systems (NYC & VT) together cost about the same as the total of car + bikes.

This was an easy question for me.  We just finished paying off her car just a few months earlier, she allowed me to get the Amati G5’s. 😁
