@lalitk I think one of my priorities would be gear I can physically move/carry myself 😆.
We don’t have a new space yet, so that will factor in. Cheers

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I thought I should post some pics before we sell our home this spring. It's been a great space for the last 7 years, but time to move on. Soon to be empty nesters & we don't need such a big house anymore.
That said, I am selling off most of my gear & downsizing my system. the McIntosh Amps &pre-amp and Canton speakers are all for sale. If anyone is in the SF Bay area, local viewing/listening before they get packed up in original boxes.
