Addiction to Brand


Many of smokers get addicted to certain brand and would never switch to any other sigarettes.
I have the same story with Aerial speakers and Lyra cartridges.
I can only upgrade to better Aerial speaker and better Lyra cartridge.
Anybody else has this kind of addiction?

Well, addicated is way too strong a word in my case, but here are the manufacturers that I currently look to first when I get the urge to upgrade:

( ) = Equipment I currently own

Analog Equipment:

(Basis)
Brinkmann
(Dynavector)
EMT
Galibier
Koetsu
Triplaner

Electronics:

Atma-Sphere
ASR Audio Systeme
Audio Research
(Ayre)
EMM Labs
(Lamm)
(Resolution Audio)
VAC

Speakers:

Apogee
Avalon Acoustics
(EgglestonWorks)
Rockport
Sonus Faber

Cabling:

Jena Labs
(Nordost)

And yeah, I know, my cabling list is too short. But I just have not gotten too much into auditioning cables, even though I know I should.

My two cents worth anyway.
