$27,500 for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat???


$27,500 is a nice chunk of change, even in the audiophile world.  I think we can all agree on this.  You can get a pretty kick ass system for that amount.  I think we can all agree on this, too.  I just read something at stereophile.com that almost...almost made me choke on my triscuit.   Luckily for me, I had water ready to go, knowing how dry those things are.  $27,500 is the price for a paint upgrade, a color called cranberry pearl finish on a pair of speakers made by Wilson, the Chronosonic XVX.   Now, when we hear the name Wilson, we all know what that means.   But come on man,  $27,500 for a paint upgrade.

Just because you do not like yellow color does not mean those who like it are idiots.

1971gto455ho,

Is your name here (1971gto) in any way related to the Pontiac GTO from 1971?


Glupson,

Yes I do in fact have one, spend time and money with that hobby as well. A sound of a different kind but also music to my ears.


🤡 priceless! Glubson comes through in the clutch. Get it? Clutch?

1971gto455ho,

I had to look it up. Now, I guess it is not a yellow one, but am curious how much was a paint job, if it is not the original paint. If it is original, they don't make them like that anymore.
