why is it that spending $1000+ on a pair of boots is such an easy decision but spending the same amount on a piece of stereo equipment or a piece of furniture is such a struggle? seriously, i've wanted this tt for at least four years and am just getting it.THE HOUSE OF DIS

Lovely minimalist design on that piece. I'll always have a soft spot for classic Technics though. I was very sad to part with my 1200s and rane ttm56 a few months ago but I just didn't have the time to give them real use anymore. kept all of my vinyl though so one of these days I'll get some new decks!
Would be interested in seeing the setup that you're putting together.
You're very right in regards to the amount of funds that we spend on clothing versus what we deem reasonable in alternate fields... seeing that some CCP blazers are $3k+ and leathers $5k, you're talking about half a '65 mustang versus a Carol outfitwww.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

^^^ Couldn't agree more, you'd have to prise my 1210s from my hands with an icepick - I've had them for 20 years and they're still going strong, and that's after HEAVY use, being dragged weekly around parties in muddy fields, thrown in the back of trucks, etc. Unbeatable.

I love my British electronics...
There is no problem with spending 1,000 on a stereo. Quite frankly, I lose respect for people when I visit there home and they plug there iphone into a mini-speaker. Absolute bullshit. For a few hundred dollars you can have excellent sound in your home with real electronics and speakers.
Every body chooses their own spend. It is tough to compare a jacket you NEEEEEEEEEEEEED to a stereo component. They offer different levels of joy to different people.

hahaha, its funny how that works out. Just recently I had an argument with my brother cuz we went out to eat, and I bothered by the extremely high prices for plates. He scoffed, and reminded me of that fact that I just dropped hundreds on some pants just a few days ago

Ah hi-fi was one of my first wallet-draining loves... luckily I have been able to cobble together 2 systems (main and secondary) over the years that are perfect for me. Haven't spent a penny on equipment in years... although actually I did buy a new Dynavector 10x5 last year to replace the stock cart on my MMF-7 (destroyed the needle... do not use expensive stereo equipment while under the influence).
Thank god I don't feel the need to buy a new turntable every season!
