You are not alone! :)

Last year I slept with my new speakers (curled up like a baby around the stands) cause they smelt better than my missus hair :shhh:

Def my favourite smell in the whole universe :cheers:

In the Stephen King novel about a haunted car named Christine, one of the characters (a dirty old man) declares "I love the smell of a new car! The only thing better is the smell of -----!" :bounce:

The blank wasn't "a new amp" but hey, it works for me! (as does what was in the blank!) :dance:

You lot are beginning to worry me lol!

My harbeth's have a very distinct walnut smell about them and the Sugden used to give off a smell of an electric fire!

The best smell was unboxing my XXLS400 sub from BK.

I’m quite odd with smell anyway, I order stuff from Amazon or the like and have delivered to work and smell everything I buy.

I can't remember what a new amp smells like, it's 19 years since I bought one. I do, however, love the smell of a new Texas Instruments calculator though.

Yeah, I know, wierdo!! :shifty:

I haven't the faintest idea. The only thing in the last 30yrs bought new rather than than ex-demo or 2nd hand was my DAC which didn't smell of anything. However, I'm expecting delivery by the end of the month of a 5 tier Hi Fi Racks rack to replace my Target steel-framed one & a matching wall-mounted plinth that my CD sits on at eye level. I'd expect it to smell of oak & perhaps some glue residual.

Unpacking new stuff for the first time is pretty exciting, of course.
