    Nice stash! Looks like you have just enough amplifiers to power all the speakers.

    I wish I had a big stash space to store big items...on second thought it may be a good thing I don't...

    That was an old picture, as is this one:


    And then there is another couple of rooms at the old house, too.

    I spy a lot of cool stuff in that stash. Looks like there is a poor, lone PS-400 that could serve me well. Should you choose to part with it, please let me know! Your threads/discussions regarding the PS series are what lead me down the road to purchasing one. Very happy with that purchase.

    The other house has L20t, L1, L3, L5, L7, 4412A, L96, 250ti, and another Pro-III Plus.
    Several more Soundcraftsmen amps and pre-amps and EQs, probably seven or eight (or more) D-series-II Crowns, a few Adcoms, a couple of more Nak decks, and others I've probably forgotten about.
    I need to retire so I can play with my toys.

    But, to get back on topic, did you spot my "spare" SL2 in the second photo?

    I did, but the PS-400 looks tastier to me. Should you want to clear some of that "old" gear that's just wasting space, please let me know! At this point, I'm thinking if I could get three PS-400's my stack would look and sound great. I could then retire the PS-200 to the office and finally cobble together a sound system in there.

    When my wife gives me grief about all my audio equipment, I will show her your stash and tell her she should feel fortunate ... and also cautious because I am envious haha.

    I may have you beat with amplifiers though...

    I do highly recommend retirement.

    I understand your thinking but that was considered a Pro item, too. Matched the DC300/A, D150/A, all considered "pro" components. It may have gotten a poor reception, until the A-version came out, but . . .

    Pretty much anything with a non-grounded power cord from Crown would have to be considered "consumer". On amps, it's the lack of 1/4-inch input jacks.

    What a great idea, a second house to store audio equipment and motorcycles! I'll consider it...

    Perhaps you could use one house as an Airbnb destination for JBL aficionados. A different and period appropriate system and furnishings in each room from mid 20th century walnut and Scandinavian teak furniture to '70s Avocado Green shag carpet, orange lampshades and Lava lamps to a replica '80s studio with soffit mounted monitors and a Studer reel to reel tape deck to a '90s family room with glass topped chromed metal leg tables, mirrored wall accents and floral print fabrics. Voilà!! ;-)
