The editorial in this months HiFi+, discusses the new paradigm of what is expensive, in our hobby. A few years ago, $100,000 for a piece of kit, was a stupid waste of money, now it seems the norm. Who are these people, who can drop $500000 on a pair of speakers? The answer is, not us.
Another conversation with an idustry insider, about a US speaker company who decided to make a B..ls out, top of the line speaker, which came to about $1,500000. They were'nt expecting to sell a single pair, it was more as a marketing move. They took them to a Shanghai show. Some guy listened for an hour and paid for 2 pairs, by cheque.
