Keeping backup equipment?


I recently had to send my amplifier in For service. In its place I picked up a used Schiit Vidar to tide me over. 
So now that I have my main amplifier back and it seems to back to making me happy I’m wondering if I should keep the Schiit or sell it. On one hand it makes sense to have a backup ready to go, on the other my main amp has
been flawless for several years. So it sort of seems a waste and maybe someone, like me, may need one on the cheap.

so for those running separates, do you have backups stored away for emergency’s?

I used to have 2 pairs of speakers and 2 amps as spares. Just lately I thought it’s a waste of resources so I set up another system with the spare gear. I still have another spare though.

The spare equipment is from my collection. I used to hoard hifi gear and at one time own 5 or 6 amps at one time. I have sold most excess gear and kept only the good ones.
