what made you get into high end gear.

im pretty sure most if not all of us here have been music lovers & system owners off & on our entire lives so the love of good music isnt really what im lookin for.

what really got me thinking about this was i was lookin at the virtual systems a while back when i read where another member gave a reason why he got into high end gear & it floored me,i swear what this guy wrote coulda been a page from my life.

i guess what im askin is was there a special moment or a certian peice of gear that caused you to take the leap from store bought systems into the world of high end gear.

i'll wait to post my reasons as i dont want to make the thread take a certian course.

That is a good post. When I was about 5 or 6 years old, I saw my first piece of McIntosh gear, I think it was either a C28 or 6100. My dad was into / still is, into good gear, back in the day, ( Sony Reel to Reel, B & O speakers,) he would have listening parties, breakin out the booze... that sort of thing. I've been hooked ever since really. And lets face it, the nicer stuff, makes you feel good, maybe as if you've accomplished something, and also as an accomplishment marker.

Thanks for the ad. By the way, take a look at my ads I have for sale please. AKOutback
