I just got it yesterday and they are reviewing amps from 12k to 97k. I sat back and thought who is really buying this stuff. I know the average audiophile Isn't and the one's that actual have the money are always looking for deals via Audiogon. Is this just audio porn for the readers or are people actually buying this stuff.

I get what every one is saying, but try making a component.  Design, test, re-do design, make it work, figure on how to get the parts you need consistently, design a chassis, box, shipping material, manuals, advertising, etc.  No wonder there are high priced components versus the low priced components.  I did not know who was buying them myself but speaking to a few industry insiders recently, there are people buying the high priced stuff and more than I thought.

Happy Listening
Actually a Koenigsegg Agera A sold recently in Singapore for a cool 5.3 Mil. If the YouTube video I linked to doesn't get your heart racing I have some bad news for you. You dead.
3 million or 5 million, at that point does it really matter. The only problem I could see with the car is getting it serviced. I don't think they have any U.S. Dealers.

There is obviously a market for ultra high end gear. I can't think of a single high end audio company who has not come out with a new top of the line product that cost at LEAST twice as much as their previous top of the line gear in the last 5-8 years. Companies that top of the line was $10K, now have top of the line products selling at $25K-$50K.

Why waste time arguing over what should or should not be?
It is what it is, deal with it.
Enjoy what you have and let other folks do likewise.
