Fess Up How much have you spent on this Hobby??


Well, I've had the audio bug since I was a teenager and I witnessed first hand the emergence of high end audio as it was introduced in the market by manufacturers such as Audio Research, McIntosh, Crown, Revox and many others. I couldn't get enough of it and even went to Hope, Arkansas to meet Paul Klipsch in person. I (of course) had an analog rig for decades before getting into digital. I've changed out systems multiple times and have now incorporated HT into the mix as well. All told, I probably have spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 150K or more at this point... and really have no regrets!! Hard to imagine life without the world's greatest music. A blessing of the highest order!

Geoff: I feel your pain. As a poor graduate student several (ha!) decades ago, I let my gut override my brain and bought a Fiat 124 rag-top, from a guy who must have been clairvoyant. Started breaking down within a month. Or maybe not, that was probably "normal" for that car. F(ix)I(t)A(gain)T(ony) ;-)

As far as this hobby goes, I'm w Jmcgrogan. Not gonna add it up, don't want to, don't care. If you do, don't forget to deduct what you got selling your used gear.
