Dammit. Now I want those "avant garde" speakers too. Until that, the list, thanks to you guys included a crazy huge telescope, tube amplifiers, funky camera & blondes.

Would have been happy, but nooooooooooooooo, I had to look at this post. Dammit... Porsche ownership is expensive, I guess...

Not sure if it qualifies as 'nerdy', but I like to collect (and wear) watches:

Check out the Watches! forum here if that interests you:

Besides my 83 and 89 928's and SL 600, I race my one-design sailboat (Mumm 30) in major US regattas and collect shotguns - AYA, Merkel, Belgium Brownings, Grulla and Parker's. Not enough time for my cars.

Cool, Randy. Any Accutrons?
I can't seem to find a battery that doesn't make mine gain 5 minutes in a day.

That's why I love my crappy old pair of dbx SF150. I love the SoundField stereo image no matter where the listener is in the room. However, all I ever do any more is watch TV and Movies, hardly ever just listen to music unless I am driving.

Hobbies? salt water reef aquarium, at it for a couple of years. An English 1/2 pounder smooth bore that I like to break out on the 4th of July. With 4 ounces of black powder it will move 18 inches to the rear. And I used to go underground spelunking, or as we like to call it, caving. This came to be to much for me as it is physically demanding, but I miss it. Cave photography and reppeling into caves when I did cave....
