Hi Fi Hoarder Tour!

[@hank927]

Reminds me of the old audiophile joke "Marty died yesterday. What did he have? Marantz, JBL,Thorens and Audio Research"

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

That's a joke only an audiophile could love! :)

[@woohunter1]

This video hits me a little hard! I’m an older guy that very rarely ever gets rid of hi-fi equipment. I’ve acquired a decent collection, nothing like the guy in this video though. My wife would sell everything for Penny’s on the dollar if I don’t let her know ahead of time what some of my stuff is worth!

[@Pete.across.the.street]

Sell it now, enjoy the $$$$

[@woohunter1]

@ haha, that would be the smart thing to do…

[@FOH3663]

Damn, hits a bit close to home. I essentially still have every audio piece I've ever owned. 70's up til now. Retired now, these items are stacking up. Even have my car audio gear from the 70's and 80's. Everything. I've got a cheapo 70's tape deck that plays 8tracks and cassettes in the same slot!

I'm a diy speaker builder and I'm afraid if something happens to me no one will realize how much money and time I put into my speakers. I don't build little bookshelves, they all weigh around 100 lbs a piece.

[@redbrazos]

That is what we face....our collections will be either sold for pennies on the dollar, given away or trashed .... my youngest relatives (beneficiaries) care not about their crazy uncle's "hobbies" and I doubt will do much research to sell for reasonable worth. Different tastes for different people. Several shipping containers of movie theatre horns, speakers and amps of the usual Altec, RCA, EV. JBL gear.... I just can't understand why anyone would NOT want two 7 foot tall 400 lb. horn cab speakers with wings in their home. It might make the kids low bit rate mp3 phone music recordings sound better but, ............(silk purses from sows ears)

[@alexw890]

Same!

I unplugged the TV 5 years ago and have invested in some nice sound, I have gotten into small speakers and really enjoy the differences in their sound and they fit different albums or artists nicely. I buy used because I don't have alot of income, but make the most of what I have. My Marantz SR7002 receiver was a gift from a fellow veteran that passed away and it's the heart of my system. I also have a set of JBL lSR studio monitors that are nice to listen on when I am listening to an album for the first time. I don't have alot of room, a small 10×14 room, and it does have a decent sound with the 12 foot ceiling. I been dreaming of class A or a tube amp down the road. But better speakers would almost be needed. I have a Paradigm studio center channel cc390 I believe and it is beautiful sounding. It doesn't really match well with any of my speakers yet. The closest are the KEF. The KEF gumdrops I have are the most neutral sounding speaker I have heard. They don't sound a particular way. Excellent imaging with the coaxial driver though. Nice depth too. I wish there was a major organization that supports giving these gifts to those who really appreciate audio. It is not about the money. It's about the love and passion for sound and staying away from the TV.

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

We will be here for you in your time of need! :) Your collection can't end up in a dumpster! Make it so!

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

Sounds like you are on a fun jouney.

[@CuttinChopps]

Shame a family member didn't get it passed on to them, who would appreciate it all, and the stories with it all. Possibly the "crazy audio person" gene skips generations lol score for the store though! That's enough to keep people busy for a long time!

[@Rcfieldz_Rcfieldz]

Wow.. just wow.

[@TheMisslonelyhearts]

That first set of tube amps you said look DIY look like early Nobis gear. They were based out of Wisconsin.

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

Interesting! Will have to look into them. Thanks for chiming in.

[@geoabraham6042]

Very funny and hard hitting warning to all audiophiles who have allowed a hobby to get out of hand. You are warned.

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

He he he...

[@mandymoo7406]

I'm building my gear from what I sold in the 1975 period,akai pioneer sony sansui leak celestionrotel etc ,I love it but appreciate I've only got a diminishing window to hear it touch it love it before it will go in the skip when I'm gone because it won't be lov3d in 10 years just like 70's motorbikes will be seen as fuddy

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

Nah! Put us in your will. :) We will keep the flame alive!

[@AllboroLCD]

Gah damnit man, haul like that keep me busy for lifetimes! Are there any speakers from Altec Lansing by any chance? I mainly collect their home line from 1985-1995, and anything featuring the duplex speaker.

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

Certainly much to sort through. Sadly zero Altec.

[@kloss213]

Think I may have known the former owner.

[@dubdoodle7191]

this vid demonstrates how obsessed some folks are scouring estate sales and classified listings for vintage audio only for no other purpose than stockpiling it. When they decide to sell some items, it's usually 50x their original price paid. Then when they're desperate to cash out, they'll attempt an insurance claim job and wind up going to jail. In then end it was it was all for nothing LMAO.

[@gilldavidmour4199]

The crazy thing is, the guy who owned all this stuff was deaf!

[@Bassman420dB]

@4:35 Awwww

[@resolutionavbrooklyn]

Yep! But the bright side...saved from the dumpster!
