My LP buying days are over. At some point this year, Everything Must Go.

The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.

Olddude. You've simplified your system and are plenty satisfied. Think - alaskahiatt 20:10:04 03/07/25 (3)
about keeping it. You might miss the escape in the late evening.

  Speakers, amp, preamp, headphones. The Mac Mini is connected to the system and Apple Music sounds very good through the main system.
  Everything else goes.

  - Ah, okay. At 79, I will be forced to downsize like that sooner than later. - alaskahiatt 12:23:44 03/08/25 (1)

      One you get to a certain age, you're one bad day away from the nursing home, and then it's too late.

There are a million things to throw away in any household-why LP's...Too many of us are ashamed of lifelong passion....I noticed the same with books.....Nothing liberating about-it does not free the mind space. Throw away family photographs , furniture and diplomas..Wish you well $$$$

  I'm going to sell them while they're still worth something so my kids won't have to deal with them when I push off.
  Not ashamed of the collection, it's just that I can't hear all that well anymore. There's no sense in adding to the pile.

    Makes sense....There are still record bins in thrift shops in NYC-so a lot of people feel the way you do.
