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.

Why did you make me add this stuff up?!?!?!

MSRP around $120K. This is NOT good! Thankfully I didn't pay anywhere near MSRP, but it is still lots of dough even at half price or so.

About $6200, not bad for a 22 year that just graduated and started his new career about a month ago. I have about another $3000 is things I need to sell though :(

I'd add it all up, but I find no joy in that venture. Everytime I've thought about it, I get about half the way through all my gear and decide there's just certain things I'd rather not know. I will say, I'm glad I bought some of my equipment 20+ years ago and would not want to have to pay what it would go for today. Happy listening

My first post here. Uhh...$8125. Much of this stuff is from the 80's, and the prices are all retail at the time when new.

Infinity RSIIb speakers (1985) $3100. pair
Quicksilver Mini Mono tube amps. (2001) $1100. pair
Belles One 100 wpc amp. (1986) $700.
VTL Minimal preamp (1987?) $800.
Softone Model 3 CD player (2006) $1500.
Pro-Ject turntable (1997) $375.
All interconnects/wire (mostly new) $550.

I'm pretty happy with this system. I will upgrade the Belles for better bass response and need a larger room to fully realise the speakers potential. -Ethan
