Here we go again, alot of different ways people find gear, choose gear, buy gear. Just want to know whats your personal style ? Do
you buy the top of the line till the next top of the line comes out ?Or get one size fits all. Tell us, is it just enough, more than adequate, or top shelf ?:lol:

    Oh yea! as for me I'm more than adequate! I choose what I want to buy then search for the best price. I'm not real quick to trade but if I can get the money I put in something out of it, or close to it allowing for the time I used it then I'll upgrade. Never have been a top shelf person. I more or less wait for the technology to
    trickle down. Like Plasma TV it will be really reasonable before I own one.

    I'm patient, and I'll shop around for the best price or wait till i find an incredible deal. While I'm doing so I'll demo other stuff, and research more and more to make sure I know exactly what I want.

    I'm not always right, but good enough.

    Everything in my system except for the cables and speakers is used or a demo/open box unit.

    "More than adequate" for me.

    Overall I've saved nearly half off of the combined retail of all of my stuff just by having a little patience and getting used/demo equipment, and I'm a happy camper.

    When I see new-like stuff going for 40% or less than list I buy it whether I need it or not.
