I found a way to get around tariffs that will raise the price of audio equipment. What is your solution?

Yes I am serious and this will work. Much talk has been created about sitting down and enjoying the music... finally. Even more discussions about the ever ending quest for better gear vs just enjoying the gear you now own.

So that's what I will do. I am not buying new gear. I will enjoy the music now.

It's pretty sure covid killed more people in the world in the past 4 years than any disease.what I'm saying is simple,just like you watch your cholesterol you should minimize tobacco and alcohol.its that simple.im not sure that over 70 years that the damage to vessels has already happened.this does not mean we should stop the starting but have had many patients develop leg pain as a side effect FYI so they may have to switch thier cholesterol meds.im off my meds currently that should get the party going.

@mark200mph , personally, I can live with leg pain; I may not live through an infarct. 

With just a few exceptions over the years, I've bought high quality used gear for a fraction of what equivalent gear would cost new.  Bought the digital portion of the system over the past few years, and if I decide to upgrade it will be at non-tariffed prices.  The upside of reaching a good plateau with gear is the enjoyment of music has taken over.  While I am still checking local ads from time to time for yet one more holy grail piece, I'm not disappointed when there's nothing of interest.  My real issue is the need to downsize in anticipation of a move, and with a rapidly stagnating economy things will likely move more slowly and at softer prices than the previous few years.  Perhaps the tariffs will stimulate the owner to owner sales and help me clean out.....
