Some of you have been at this a long time with a lot of experience and probably a lot of changes..


So how often for those with "upgrade-itis" have you changed you equipment? Whats is the average you keep your gear until deciding it's time for a change?

I hope this is it for me for now but I could be saying what most of you have said to yourselves before..

As for me, I got my HTS in 2006 starting with DLP TV & HTIB!!! After having my system for about 2 weeks, I've always been itching too upgrade audio components whenever i get the money. Seems like every 6 months after my first HT purchase, I've changed out my HTIB speakers, too floorstanding towers, then to a bigger center channel, a deeper bass subwoofer and real life surround.

I opened 2009 with a purchase of new yamaha receiver too decode HD signals and push my 5.1 speaker system. What a difference in sound coming from the yamaha receiver.

Now I'm looking too add from 5.1 to 7.1 speakers, then upgrade my floorstand towers to polk's RTI-A9s, and finally round off with larger HDTV!!!

However, buying for my bluray collection has hendered my spending capabilities!!!
