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?

at 60 I am also thinning the herd considerably……. My goal for 2022 is to get down to a single TT …. wish me luck

I may be able to help you ^there^

 

Back on the topic…

I usually get the best gear I can afford, with the expectation it will not be replaced. But I did get some “good enough” gear, that is no longer used. Usually tuners, DVD players, CD players. Etc.
