How many ‘boxes’ do you have that requires power in order for you to enjoy your man cave
In front of me currently are 10 items-
Tv, power amp, turntable (2), phono stage, ps3 (cd & dvd), DAC, Apple box & network switch.
Can u beat that
I only ask as I keep seeing multitasking boxes- dac, cd, pre amp or network hub- feel environmentally ashamed )sometimes) as I sit in front listening with my coffee from the dolce gusto and browsing on the iPhone
How many....

Re: How many....
I have small-scale audio installations all over the house, run from the network.
After 25 boxes I stopped counting.
Luckily I have a big solar array to power it all - so I don't feel the least bit guilty !
