Time to do house cleaning.

I had been audiophile since 1978.

 

My first serious system was Garrard turntable, Fisher integrated amp and ADS bookself speaker which sounds musical.

 

Since I had moved to Washington state 11 years ago, I had kept everything in the attic.  I have plenty of space in my 5100 sqf house.

 

I had enjoyed pristine treble and nice bass out of Lansche 4.1 which I bought new 2006 for 15 years.

 

I also bought Vaugn Cabernett II as second system.

 

 

But since I had bought Altec A7 and Scaena 3.2, Lansche and Vaugn speakers has not being used.

 

The above is the sound of hybrid system of Altec basshorn and Scaena 3.2

 

Altec basshorn was connected from 290 hz and down and two 18 inch subwoofers are added from 56 hz and down.

 

It give very wide and deep soundstage and unlimited dynamicws.

 

6 weeks ago I got Aurender N30 server which sounds really excellent.

Since then, Jays Audio CDt II transport is not being used any longer.

 

Lansche, Vaugn speakers and Jays Audio transport better find home to be used.

 

But I am too lazy to make any decision yet.

 

Do you thing I had better clean my attic before the end of year or early next year.

 

Your valuable opinions will be apprecicated.

At some point one gets old enough that it becomes clear that stuff needs to be going out instead of in. I assume by your embarkation of audio journey was very similar to mine. So, you can declutter now or allow an estate sale or have someone that has no clue of the value (I don’t mean money) of the stuff dispose of it. About five years ago I started giving away or trading in all my extra stuff. I have a friend… buding audiophile and some discounts for my current gear. I am retired and can spend three hours a day listening to my main system and headphone system. I don’t stand around my storage areas looking at my old equipment.

 

I know my old Threshold Gear was reconditioned and went to a person who loved Threshold gear. Etc.

 

You can make sure it goes to someone that will appreciate it.
