Ditto. And my profile only lists the bits I use 
Thereās enough to build a few other systems out of bits I just have boxed away.
There was a theead about which bits of gear people regretted getting rid of. For me ot was everything so I stopped getting rid of it.
Same, I include lengthy fostering of gear with mates, better they enjoy it that it sit there unused but I still havenāt given it up. B&W 805Nās were on loan for 11 years. Although they were an exception as I sold them when I found out I could nearly get what I paid for them 20 odd years earlier.
Oops! I just couldnāt resist a bargain pair of Monitor Audio R300/MD today. Iām playing them now, on the dining table using a Technics CD and a Hong Xing Class āDā amp (which are in the āTrialsā box). Since they are very close to me they are playing at quite low power but they sound pretty good for under Ā£50.
Playing Bastille āBad Bloodā which was aparently number 1 at some point.
I also have a pair of Acoustic Solutions speakers, an amp (forgotten which) and a CD player (possibly Goodmans?) on loan to a friend.
Further thoughts on the Monitor Audios:
I have been listening to them all this afternoon, firstly with some CDs (vocal and close miked instruments) through an Arcam CD & Amp. Then āSounds of the 70sā from a Sansui network player (as a DAB) through an Arcam ARDac.
The imaging is superb. I can visually imagine the position of all of the instruments and voices. Perhaps lacking in deep bass but you would expect this from an infinite baffle in a (relatively) small box. All in all I am very happy with the sound and consider them a bargain.
@Tony I had my 32.5/Hi-Cap/110 serviced about 3 years ago so they could stand in for the 282/Hi-Cap x 2/135s when they went to Naim for a service. They were used for 6 weeks and have been mothballed since. But I did not have to spend 6 weeks without music in the living room.
Plus, if you have hoarded stuff, you need to know it works. Or at least was serviced X years ago. Most of my hoarded gear is in use; usually in other peoples ststems or my 2nd. Yes, i have a few pieces that are not being used right now. The nac 62, an olive Hi cap, a black hi cap DR, couple of pair of speakers.
Yeah, but how many R2Rs do you have?
A good question Mitch! Iām ashamed to say that Iām not entirely sure. It was a lot at one point, but Iāve sold off quite a number in the past few years. I think Iām back in single figures again. Possiblyā¦
Iām sure youāve already been offered an Intervention Number, many times! lol But seriously, which of them are your most prized?
NAC 72 early version
NAC72 late version
NAP 180 (1996)
Hicap - olive
Hicap - classic
CD5x
flat cap
CDi - later version 
(resting in the crypt )
2 x pairs of naca5
1 x pair of naca 4 (11m long)
Plus an assortment of cables, remote controls, SL2 x-overs, prefix, naim moon-bat carrier bag from 1996ā¦.
Iāve got a pair of black MkI SBLs collecting dust in my garage. Iād like to move them on but I canāt even give them away!
I got a brand new in box Nait 50 that I bought thinking Iād use it in a 4th system (!!!), which hasnāt happened.
They are not worth that much second hand, so Iāll just keep it around should an opportunity to use it arise.
When I bought my SBLās I was working on an assignment in Luxembourg. During lunch I checked the German Audiomarkt site and a nice pair of SBLās was there. I contacted the seller and apparently I was the first who requested to come and listen. He sold them to me and Iām still happy with them.
Itās now winter period and since we donāt heat the gardenhouse theyāre unused but once spring arrives theyāll be used again.
Probably one of my Revox machines. Thereās a mint in box A77 MkII 4 Track that I bought from a retired diplomat. He could only have used it maybe once or twice. But I guess most prized would be a very early A77 (77A) 2 Track that has a very sweet and valve-like sound to it, very like its G36 predecessor.
Iāve done the opposite - recently sold 11 items (8 Naim pieces; a Quad FM4 and a matching A&R A60 plus T2 tuner) and I think I feel good about it. Miss the 42/110 thoā. Couldnāt part with the Meridian 104 tuner.
Oh yes, these Revox machines are superb. Used one a very very long time ago. Never owned one unfortunately.
I still regret letting go of my Thiel 1.6s. Should have fought much harder in that divorce.
I chucked a mint condition Akai tape deck in a skip. Inherited it. Didnāt realise what high end gem it was. Also got shot of a totally repairable JVC receiver from 1980 and Technics D2 turntable. Really beautiful gear.
I take the regret as a lesson to not repeat the same errors.
Conversely, I never give the Arcam or Linn stuff from the 90s I let go a second thought. The exception being my early DIN A60 but I found it (thinking it was long gone) in the wine cellar of a farmhouse in Belgium a couple years back. Took it home to Japan for some TLC.
Same, Nakamichi Cassette Deck 2, second prize ina hifi choice competition. Got to the point wasnāt using cassettes and it was literally mint.
Muppet.
