You have me beat. I did turn over my complete system in the last couple of years but not that many swaps.

Not too often, I just keep adding. Although I may have some big upgrades this week.

I definitely don't view this as a good thing (because of the speed involved), but in the last 2 years:
I went from B&W 804's to 802's to Sasha's to Sasha II's (delivery next week). From Musical Fidelity integrated amp to McIntosh C2300/D100/MC452 to ARC Ref5/Ref75 From squeezebox touch to Mac Mini/Audirvana/Esoteric K-03 From Project Debut III to Rega RP3 to VPI Classic 1 From TA's cheapest speaker cables to Super to Reference Again, I was taking advantage of trade-ins etc, but this is way too much, too fast, for my wallet My ears like it, though Last edited by 2fastdriving; 04-14-2014 at 03:15 PM. |

Way too often for my taste. My system is in complete evolution but I hope to reach a more stable place soon.
Over the past two years, I bought: Sonus Faber Elipsa Red Accuphase E360 Accuphase DP67 Accuphase AD20 Accuphase DAC30 Accuphase C2110 Manley Snappers along with new tubes Pro-ject 4 Avid Volvere PS Audio PWD PS Audio P5 Ortofon Cadenza Blue Behringer 2496 Pioneer LX72 Okki Nokki RCM (I paid for it but never received it, still paid though ) Mac Mini M2TEch hiface 4 coax / 2 XLR / 1 speaker / 2 USB cables I almost bought a pair of Jadis mono blocks recently but I had to stop myself. |

This is the gear I have sold during the past six years. I regretted selling a couple components so I bought them again (C2300, MR88) and still own both of the second ones. I owned four MC601's all at one time but then traded two when I bought the MC2301's. The transition to trying new gear started when I began participating in audio forums. Imagine that! Fortunately, after six years I have finally settled on four systems I am thoroughly satisfied with so I have slowed way down.
The list below is gear I sold over the past six years. McIntosh - MC300, MC352, MC501 (2) MC601 (2), MC275 MkV (3), C40, C42, C2200, C2300, C1000C/T, MCD7009, MCD205, MCD301, MCD500 (2), MCD1100 (2), MEN220, MR7084, MR85, MR88. Misc. - Linn Ikemi, Nakamichi CR-7A, Shure V15 Type VxMR, Ortofon 2M Black, Kimber 8TC, Tributaries Silver IC's, PS Audio Power Plant Premier (2), Sennheiser HD580, Sennheiser HD600, Musical Fidelity X-Can V8P, HeadAmp Gilmore Lite, Yamaha RX-V2700. Speakers - JBL EON10 G2, JBL Control 5, Infinity C360 Center, Definitive Technology BP2000, Sonus faber Cremona Auditor, Sonus faber Guarneri Memento.
