Doug: We are called "pot lickers" where I hail from. My current main system retails for $6500. I paid a little over $3000 for it. I also have another $2000 (actual outlay) in items that are either being produced at this time, will be ordered within the next few weeks or that have not yet been installed into the system, so I guess that it will be an $8500 system by the end of next month. Right now it is the second most musical system that I have ever owned (might be the first if the room allowed it) and it is an SET/digital based setup that is not a full range system. Cabling (wires alone and not conditioning) will come in at around 20% of the retail price of the entire system and isolation components and the equipment rack will account for approx. 10% of the total system's retail when it is fully completed (two additional shelves are not included in these totals). I find these ratios to be quite reasonable though I did not really take them into consideration when putting the system together. I have also had a lot of fun assembling this one, especially with the little SET which is a new experience for me.
How much does your system retail for?
$23,000 - $24,000 I estimate. (Two channel, this does not include TV, VCR, etc.)
Please, keep the exagerations to a minumum, do not count CD's, equipment you have bought and sold, is packed away that you don't use anymore, etc..
Put the total first so it shows up at the begining of your post.
This is just for fun and curiosity of the diversity on here, don't take it to seriously. Simply evaluate what the retail value of your system is.
