you have sentimental attachment to a...uh...amplifier?
- smackeyacky 4y agoI can see this happening. My lounge doesn't look the same since my favourite (big) speakers got evicted in favour of a minimalist / soundbar thing that I hate. I just got very used to seeing (and hearing) those big black boxes and they have been in every house we lived in for over 30 years. If you're used to seeing (and hearing) something then having affection for those objects is quite common I would have thought.
- flycaliguy 4y agoMusic equipment is among the most sentimental of all human possessions. In fact virtually all the musicians I’ve ever met believe in “MOJO”.
- willismichael 4y agoIs MOJO an acronym in this case? I consider myself an amateur musician but I'm not familiar with this term.
- lttlrck 4y agosentimental value refers to the memories associated with an object, not the object itself. I have had it for 30 years, I have listened to hundreds of CD with it (that I also still own). Thousands of hours. I know what it sounds like. It was £210 - I paid for a good chunk of it myself from my first job at Tesco in the smallest city (w/ cathedral) in England, pushing trollies. And! I fixed its crusty old volume pot for a couple of bucks instead of throwing it in the trash. That's how sentimentality works... for me anyway.
