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?

Want to see what one hi-fi retailer thinks it can get you to spend money on? I am NOT making this up, the following were pictured in today’s email from The Music Room:

- Roller Hero Tubility Belt, a leather (looking, at least) utility belt that has loops to hold small signal and power output tubes. Yours for the low, low price of $799.

- Kitty Kable Riser. This 4-pk. of cable risers not only serves its’ obvious function, but also wards off pesky felines. Only $1,199.

- Best of all: TMR (yes, The Music Room invented this product, and claims to have patended it) Maxcavator 99.9999 Pure Silver 6-Piece Audiophile Earwax Removal Kit. If the kit’s $2,759 price tag seems a little high, remember: it includes six utensils, and they are not made of that inferior .999 pure silver, but the real deal: 4-9’s silver. After using the kit’s utensils, you will finally hear music reproduced in full fidelity. Does the kit come with a money-back guarantee? ;-)

The Fed prints money out of thin air. Look up fractional banking. The Federal Reserve is owned by mostly Rothchilds.
