Have you ever got emotionally attached


To a piece of equipment. One that you dont want to part with. For me its an old pair of OHM I speakers. Bought in 82. Ive upgraded them and just like them. They have their own sonic signiture that Im used too. OK I'll admit Im biased. Three of the drivers are on top and pointed upwards. The sound does not directly come at me and Im used to it. I have 2 Watkin echo muffs behind them. Any way I see them as the part of the system that actually sings to me. I also tried a much touted newer speaker and sold it a year later. If anyone wants to give me a $5000+ speaker I'll try it but I might be sending it back too you. I also wished I hadnt sold my Tandberg 3018A preamp. I thought it looked pretty cool and sounded great. mike

i'm still holding on to my 36 inch ANALOG television set, with its wood veneer cabinet, built in amp and speakers, and a glass-enclosed two-shelf storage
for vcr/dvd players. for me, the color rendition on it makes up for the small amount of definition loss. and i still have an EXTRA cassette deck in the closet to back up the one i have out (even though i don't use it much...)
i have a couple of "member's only" jackets in the back of the closet...
