Wilson Audio Specialties Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker!! only $300,000.oo

What a bargain, still bet they sound great with the right amp up them, looking at that impedance/phase angle graph.

XVX is a very demanding load, with EPDR less than 1.1 ohms between 52Hz and 66Hz and between 197Hz and 287Hz, with minimum values of 0.91 ohms at 450Hz and 0.94 ohms at 3250Hz. The Chronosonic XVX should be used with amplifiers that don't have problems driving loads of 2 ohms and lower.

Who is making assumptions? You assume I have a lack of character because I object to the notion that all wealthy people flaunt their wealth. Is flaunting wealth is some great sin? The richest people I know, granted I live in the Midwest, do not have a tendency to flaunt what they have. My problem is with people that are more concerned with perception and would let the possibility of a negative perception prevent them from doing what they wish. Most people with your attitude have a chip or have had some bad experience with wealthy people from their younger days or previous lives.

How about that 40th Anniversary LP12 - with an included bottle of 40 year-old Scotch! Now for sale here on Agon - $25K! Talk about value pricing!

In this case I would agree with you that this doesnt seem like a good value, but who am I to say. I know what I think the LP12 is worth, not so sure I can put a value on the Scotch.

@jasonbourne52   The original price of the 40th Anniversary LP12 was $40K!! I think there are a few poor souls ( well a little poorer now) who actually ponied up for them! Made absolutely no sense to me at the time, just like the $25K price now...as this model doesn't even feature the new Karousel bearing.

I've known plenty of wealthy people in my lifetime. The one's that live to flaunt their wealth are pretty dreadful, insecure characters.

Carry on, Biff.
