Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?

"Having owned Grado60s and LS-50s, I can tell you there is an audio world out there that is a quantum leap past that level of gear. But I do agree with what you were trying to say. "

I would venture to say that the difference between the LS 50w system and a million dollar system is less than the difference between LS 50s and typical laptop speakers.

A pair of Kef LS 50 self powered wireless speakers can get you stereo audio that should satisfy most people for a lifetime.  Anything more expensive than that will only be incrementally better

Some live in an alternate reality. I want to have what you are smoking.

"hey -- why bother with kobe and wagyu?... beef is beef... that stuff isn’t any different, just a waste of money -- famous quote by the beef eater and lifelong regular at sizzlers 😂🤣😆

Ever notice how some say they don't have a dog in this fight and end up on a soapbox tugging at the leash before they finish? 

All the best,

It’s not so much that they care, it is more likely that they think its obsurd....and I’d have to agree that in most cases it is.....there does exist a law of diminishing returns. To pay thousands and thousands more to get a lousy 1 to 3 percent increase in "better" (subjective) sound is Lunacy....a lot of it is based on huge over inflated Egos, and trying to "keep up with the Joneses", rather than the pursuit of a qualitative increase in sound. JMO, don't kill me.
