Post Subject: Tubes in sauna are rather metaphors.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 11/19/2013

Well, if cause I would not keep the DHT tube with plastic bottom in sauna. Even though I did, purl for run, loaded 4 boxes of 6C33C under the lower sauna beach, still the subject tubes in sauna is rather a metaphorical concept for me then the true need to save space. What is important to me and in a way cathartic for me is to look over the residuals of many audio projects that I was involved and re-evaluate their value and theirs interest in my future life. For sure many of the projects were a lot inverted time, money. Some of them were successful, some of them not. Now I have a full basement of memories of those projects and I would like to see what kind usability I might salvage from my sentimental audio possessions. I found today in basement over 12 RF attenuators. Some of them super duper attenuators that cost me a few hundred doors. I found a collection of TT motors. Some of them very slick, one of them $900 – I was thinking that if my Micro motor goes south then I need to have a very good motor to drive my TT. Well, I am sure my hart stop beating before Micro motor goes wrong but still have 5 spare motors. I have a few headphone amps, including 2 that I build and I do not need any of them, particularly mine that sounded like shit. I can continue this list for very long time without even mentioning the amp and speakers. Do I need to keep all of it?

For sure it is not audio question but rather a question for my shrink if I had one. I am planning to get rid quite a lot. Amy say that I need to put it on eBay. I really do not see myself to make picture and write drooling descriptions – I do not want to be a slave of all of it. So, this week is me searching a healthy balance between my audio spare possessions and some rational. I have to admit it is not so simple as I initially though. I wonder if you guys went over it in past....
