I have, and listen to, four systems raging from very simple to quite complex. I had issues with getting rid of gear I have enjoyed for a long time and tend to reconfigure it into a secondary (tertiary etc....) system both for a change in listening and as a source of backup gear if anything screws up in the main system.
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?
