What speakers for 10k?

Well, not all engineers are created equal. From what I read Duke is a pretty good one though."

That's definitely a true statement. The first part, anyway. I don't know Duke so I can't really say anything good or bad, about him. I would add to that, by saying the best engineers are the ones who realize products can't be designed in a vacuum, and aren't afraid to use other resources to make a better product. Anyone who tells you how something is going to sound just by looking at a spec sheet is full of it. Those are not the people you want designing your gear.

A good engineer need only know their technical domain best in order to be the best engineer.

But there is more to delivering good engineered solutions. Its a team sport. In that context, the best engineer is the one that uses their expertise to help deliver high value to the end user. High value and best technical implementation are not necessarily the same thing as we have seen many times over the years in terms of what products succeed and which do not.

Apple is the classic example these days of applying technology effectively over time to meet the most user needs.

"Anyone who tells you how something is going to sound just by looking at a spec sheet is full of it. "

I would agree with that. However, a good engineer will know how to put those specs to best use in order to meet the goal.

It's 50 percent on Nordast cables and 75 percent on Demo cables. Still a 3k pair os speaker cables that cost 1500 is very high!! Speaker cost 10k and dealer gets it for 5k or so. That is a huge markup.

But the wavetouch will give my wife bigger breast! would a measurement on these speakers make everyone feel better? I'll keep you posted on how big my wife's breasts are getting.
