    Just bought a new SUB 5 about 6 weeks ago. Then two weeks ago while starting to look for a new amp to handle the 5 low end, I tried a SR5 HH and got a serious case of G.A.S. on the spot. It's a good thing to be broke right now or would be sleeping with the dog. Pepcid AC dosen't fix this kind G.A.S.

    Just when I think I am content, I see something else that I want and the worst thing is that my wife says that if I want it just to get it.

    good for my collection, not for my bank balance.

    I know that some of the guys here have serious double or triple digit collections but I have always been used to having 1 or 2 at a time.

    I have 5 just now - 3 of them EBMMs

    I've got it so bad that I've been through three or four single H Bongo fivers just because I wanted a different COLOR.

    Really.

    I've mentioned this before, but the secret is to get up to about eight or ten basses and keep them constantly rotating in and out so the wife gets used to the idea of trades and, of course, boxes coming from the UPS guy.

    After a while, they aren't even curious.

    It's just another box, just another, ahem, 'trade'.
