TBG,
I too was shocked when I heard the price. I was looking to get a 6 tier rack.
That would only set me back $42,000. I have enough gear for 2 rack probably.
When talking with Robert at Starsound he indicated that the purity and machining of brass they use is unlike almost any other in the audio biz.
They have really broken this down to a science, and the metalurgy is crucial to the effectiveness. I have read their credits on thier site about the scientific background of their rather large team of scientists, designers and fabricators.
These people are serious! To call them just a stand seems like a huge understatement.
You can read their white papers here.

I would like to see other manufacturers utilizing some of their products and designs inside componenent where they could be even mor eeffective than simply sitting on a stand. I in fact am going to try to modify my MA-1 amps internally using Sistrum products. You can clearly tell I have drunk the cool-aid on this one.
