What item sold you cannot live without??

A pair of Energy 1.8 speakers. I chose the NHT 3.3 for the long haul but the Energys far surpassed anything else I have ever heard in soundstage and layering. A gut wrenching decision.

Sold some common stock for $15 that I paid $7 for. Was so glad to more than double my money, until the stock continued to go up to $80.
D'OH

My problem is the opposite. I have a lot of gear I am currently not using, that I can't seem to part with. Too nice to let go, since they are no longer made..

Thiel CS7s, the original. I wish I had kept them and upgraded them to 7.2 with Thiel's kit.

Had a Marantz 4 channel receiver with a little oscilloscope and 4 JBL L200 studiomasters speakers for a "groovy" very early 70's quad setup.

Wish I had the same damn setup just for fun.

Kind of like Sugarbrie at present. I regret selling the JBL's and now hang on to stuff. Still have my Apt Holman preamp a couple of Hafler 500's and marcof setup for moving coils, Nak cassette deck, Infinity 4.5's, Revox Reel to Reel, mostly because I even though I don't use it presently, I might!!!!

Sugarbrie, I did the same thing you did--sold my stock and it kept going up, and up. Oh how I suffer.

Audiowise ( ooh--potential trade name ? ) I wish I'd kept my Wireworld Gold Starlight. Haven't heard a digital cable to beat it yet, esp. at the price. And taxes are going to force me to sell my second player, a Shanling CD-S100 MkII which I think is one of the best deals ever.
