Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much?


I don't have any specific example but just from looking at it overall, it seems like high-end components prices have really risen more than inflation.  

Or may be it is must me?

while the highest end can be called astronomical, the quality of modest cost systems has become quite impressive...

I think the root cause is the FED has been printing money.  I mean look at their balance sheet.  They got 8 trillion dollars.  All that was just trying to artificially inflate the stock market and the housing market but at the expense of inflating the cost of everything else.

Are manufecturers , rich  peoples ?
Is it a rewarding business ?

I don’t know .
 

Andy,

I agree with you. Can't just keep printing money.

What a mess and still years to go until relief!

The Fed is not just printing money. Stop with the folk economics as it makes you guys look like trolls, which you are.

All the best,
