The Wilt Chamberlain of Audio Gear


Forget about having the audio itch, upgraditis, or whatever you want to call it - anyone besides myself ever feel like the Wilt Chamberlain of Audio gear?  My brother always said that I change audio gear more than I change my underwear, but in the last 2 years, the addiction has gotten worse I think.  My name is Lou and I’m an audio whore, and I don’t mind it one bit :)

Anyone else care to share?

Scott 22's main point rings true, you are better off with synergy between components or players.

But I could not resist this, even though as a kid I kind of liked Wilt, in his later career L.A. Lakers days.

Bill Russell also was on two USF NCAA championship teams, and an Olympic Gold medal winning team, bringing his total  ring count to 14.

Wilt's Kansas team lost to North Carolina in the title game, late '50s,, when the Tarheels went into a stall, not uncommon in those days. 

Wilt's numbers were otherworldly during the regular season, but head to head, in 142 games against Russell, his scoring tended to be a lot lower. 
Russell was a terrific shot blocker and defender, maybe the best of his time. I think one year, he was a "player/coach." 

OK, enough with the sports talk. Who knew this was a basketball forum?
