You know you're an audiophile if--


You just got a pair of speakers you can barely move yourself (inverse proportionality with age probably too)

The first house you bought cost less than your current stereo investment (ditto)

You have boxes of cables with which you don't know what to do

Hey, I figure I'll, probably, lose all my teeth, one day, anyway, so what the hell.
I may be crazy. But, I'm not stupid. Maybe I should be a Fox news anchor.
When you have finally assembled a 450 SLC in your living room, but now want a 580.

When inordinate prices don't make you blink, but make you think "How long it will take, instead"

When you have more money in wires than in your IRA.

wHEN YOUR SYSTEM HAS FINALLY GOTTEN EXACTLY WHERE YOU WANT IT... YOU SELL IT and start over

When even the bathroom has bass traps.

When you go to Lowes, you begin to think about just how many fiberglass panels it would take to fix all the issues.

When you start your auditionsd in the 'big room'.

...... or when you just never seem to be quite done building your rig.
Well said Jim
I would love to hear your system if i'm ever in your neck of the woods
