Worth of current system

I just totaled up the full retail cost of my system, including the electronics, the speakers, the rack, the cables, the room treatments, the tweaks... Oh my GAWD!

More than my car .....

Ouch!

Well it's not something I even care about tbh, it's my hobby.

All in with tweaks, cables etc.

$22000 or so.

However in my defense if had to buy same stuff at new retail would be closer to $40,000.

So there is that to justify it.

If one needs justification....

In terms of payment, my total is 120,000$.

If I pull the trigger for top music server this year, then it can reach 150,000.

I do not change major components every year.

Once i am happy with them, I will keep them 3 years or longer.
