How many pair of speakers do you own?

Since I am a self proclaimed speaker nut, I was trying to justify to my wife that having 5 pair of speakers is normal for an audiophilic addict. Curious also about what type, Dynamic, Planar, Single Driver etc; If you are member of this sight, you probably have a mania towards some component or other. Mine is Loudspeakers, which I learned early are 70% of your system. To me they may be >> 80%

Thanks>>>>

Five pairs which I will eventually pare down to the three (the first three) speakers.

Altec 846A Valencia
Quad ESL 57 electrostats
Quad ESL 63 electrostats paired with a Gradient SW-63 (both are in need of repair)
Snell Type J II
Snell Type J III

As for future acquisitions, I may try to buy a gently-used Devore Orangutan O/96 at some point in time.   Once the Big Move from Southern to Northern California takes place later this year and my house remodel is done, I'll be running the Quad speakers with Audio Research or Quad II gear and I've been running the Altec's with my Shindo gear.

The "end of the road" is in sight!
