Protecting Equipment from Children

I have 2 lounges... One is mine.... Daddies lounge. Only adults allowed (if invited) 

Again, you are all so concerned about your precious gear, you should be more concerned about the kids…

My daughter knocked a stand mount speaker over when she was learning to walk. Thankfully, it didn’t land directly on her foot or toes as she would have lost a couple. It did make a perfect triangular hole in the floor however. Same daughter who at three years of age picked up my watch (which I had taken off so as not to scratch her with it - playtime) looked at it, looked at the wall, looked at me and whipped it across the room into the wall. 700 dollar repair… Same daughter who at 9 decided to play DJ with a friend using my TT. So long cantilever. My son thought the tubes in my amp were pretty, and he tried to pull one out when a toddler. Blisters on thumb and three fingers. Never tried that again. 
 

Kids break stuff, get over it. Anything lost, broken or stolen is just an opportunity to get something better. Lost, broken or stolen kids, not so easily replaced….

Portable electric fencing will take care of this.  Will keep small children and parents away from your equipment.  Says it works on small and mid-sized animals. So, that should get you up to early teens - in human size. 

Legal disclaimer: this is meant as humor. Well sort of.  Kind of wonder if the electric fence would affect sound quality.  :)

Ill start looking into a noise suppression system right away :)

Put the fear of God in them. Remember, spare the Hickory stick, spoil the vinyl collection.
