$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.

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.

I am so glad I have wifi in the garage where I can retreat to the better end, rest the Lizard King brain ( your musical reference for the day ) and settle into my folding camp chair, fire up the $26 NAD 3020, the beater Nakamichi Eric flipped to me ( thanks @ bdp24 ) and see IF I can out compete the neighbors with my 1972 Cornwalls, wallnut veneer ( which would have been viewed as high end in Arkentuckey )...
