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.

@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. |
It’s relative. If you’re with a million and spend 30k on a set of speakers it’s not unreasonable. If you’re worth 10 mil and spend 300k on speakers it’s not unreasonable. I’d love to hear them. I bet a properly set up system with these speakers would blow my mind. Many people have become very weathy over the last 20 yrs.. Comparison is the thief of joy. Enjoy what you have. Don’t be a hater. The rich have lots of problems like everyone else. Money affords you one thing in my opinion.....Freedom from material issues. |
