How much gear do you own?

Do you have multiples of amps, preamps, speakers, cables, etc?

I do, and am starting to realize it's leaning hard toward a sickness rather than a passionate hobby.  Either that, or I'm getting up in age and tired of all the "stuff" I've acquired taking up so much space.

I went through a phase about ten years ago where I got tired of stereo gear and dumped most of it.  I really regretted it after a few years and acquired most (and then much more) back.

But this time it feels different somehow.  And I really think it has to do with my age...pushing 60.

Others go through this?

Thoughts?

Yes I have too much stuff and a lot of it is audio gear.

But as I am a discerning purchaser each and every piece paid me back in spades
with enjoyment.  It is coming to the time I will need to start downsizing.

My music room is coming down the home stretch to completion and that was
~$60k.  Pretty hard to sell that to someone!
