PS- cables add to the list.

Canare, Outlaw, Monster, Philips, AR, Cardas, Signalwire, Straightwire, a few more...
 
Right now......

4

(hey.... it's a cabin not a sound hall)

McIntosh (MC2105 / MX113)
B&W LM1 (speakers)
PSB Alpha 1 subwoofer
MS Zune 128

Now if I walk over to the guest cabin I can add 2 more (3 Luxman bits and a pair of Mission 700)

.
 
ASUS/Cirrus Logic, sound card/DAC chip in computer.
Luxman, amplifier.
Technics, cassette deck that I just have for the sake of the sexy meters ;).
JBL, speakers.

And if you wish to count them, I have three APC Smart-UPSes to let me keep on listening when the sub-standard power grid here decides to break.
 
My "main" system is a mix of nice stuff and stuff that was convenient at the time ;)

H/K Citation 17/19 Amps
Technics ST-8600 Tuner
Micro Seiki MB-14
Onkyo Integra TA-2047 Cassette
Pioneer RT-909
Sharp MD-R3 CD/MD
DLK 1 1/2 speakers
 
15.
Dynaco - amp, preamp, tuner.
B&O - table 1.
Soundsmith - Cart. 1.
Thorens - Table 2.
Shure - Cart 2.
Akai - R2R.
Denon - Cassette.
Sony - CD/DVD player.
Klipsch - Speakers.
Grado - Phones.
Acoustic Research - One set of interconnects.
Cablevision (? Mfg) - Many interconnects courtesy of the cable TV company.
Radio Shack - Headphone extension, various minor stuff.
Generic zip cord - Speaker wires.
Apple - Airport express, iPod, Macbook.
We're not counting the brands of tubes and such, right? And I'm not counting video since I don't watch much TV and even though it is hooked into the audio system I rarely use anything but the built in speakers.
