How Often do you Change Your Gear

mrdecibel - funny...I actually don't change my equipment very often.... quite the opposite.....in the last 20 yrs I had 4 or 5 amps, 5 preamps , maybe 5 different speakers and only 4 different CDP

Haha, funny is right!  In the last FIFTY years, I have owned (average # per year):
three turntables (0.06)
two tonearms (0.04)
three cartridges (0.06)
two CD players (0.04)
two cassette decks (0.04)
three DACs (0.06)
three preamplifiers (0.06)
five stereo amplifiers, (0.1)  and
five pairs of stereo speakers (0.1)

I have also acquired a lot of LPs and CDs  because, for me, this hobby really is All About the Music (though I do own more books than my CDs and LPs combined).

How about you?
