How much does your system retail for?


$23,000 - $24,000 I estimate. (Two channel, this does not include TV, VCR, etc.)

Please, keep the exagerations to a minumum, do not count CD's, equipment you have bought and sold, is packed away that you don't use anymore, etc..

Put the total first so it shows up at the begining of your post.

This is just for fun and curiosity of the diversity on here, don't take it to seriously. Simply evaluate what the retail value of your system is.

$14,000.00 You know this could be the equivalent of a "scared straight" program for a newbie.
Whoa, I figured the median to about $10-15k. Mine is $5200, retail, soon to be around $7k with the addition of a turntable. I'm still just a college student though, so i can wear my audio insanity with pride.
I'm @~$30K for strictly 2-channel, but these reports surpise me too: I read one survey where only about 10% of rigs ran over $20K. Probably the bigger spenders have more of a tendency to report here?
Retail would be considerably higher than what I actually paid for this nonsense, but I figure each system breaks down to the following: $2,800, $2,700, $1,900, $1,500, $1,200, and $600. It probably would have made more sense to put together one killer system, due to always trying to make each system better, however I can always find a place in my house away from other family members to listen. This brings me to another topic, how many systems do others have? I know most households have a television in every room, how many audio systems do we have.
