Did you know that 82.5% of statistics are made up on the spot by writers trying to be overly clever? Well, Audioholics.com in conjunction with The Home Theater Alliance, AV Rant, and the OPRA Opine Ominbus.Org have combined their considerable resources to bring you the definitive measurement tool for assessing your level of Audioholicism.

    There are signs that an audio addiction is creeping into your life. Larger speakers, talks of upgrades, spending copious amounts of time on AV websites digesting information and making comments.

    That's is so me.

    Then additional 35

    You have learned well young padawan, but not yet complete is your training. You’ve made more good choices than bad and for sure you’re headed down the right path. Your purchases, though somewhat excessive, are not money wasted. Continue your training you must. Much to learn have you.


    And that's after loosing points for my PS3, and not counting my 3rd 2.1 system setup, and no points for having too many speakers and not enough receivers. I also am not gonna deduct points for bose cubes when I got 4 of them free and I got a free Monster HDMI-DVI cable from the G/F's stepdad (who GAVE us the plasma) Sweet test.

    69 at the subtotal, 84 grand total… stupid 27” SD CRT! It’s bringing my numbers down!

    I went through the test again with a view to planned upgrades/what would be their now if I wasn’t poor; it came out to 196.

    Oh, and what’s with “upconverting DVD player” being worth +3 points??

    I knew I should have bought that record player at that garage sale for 5 bucks. I got 59, but that is gonna change. I too have stupid 27" tube crushing me, as well as other lame crap.
