these speakers are $375K USD...if there is a new version 'coming soon,' wouldn't you wait?
"Buy This One Before A Better One Arrives!!" isn't a good sales strategy...
@northernbassist I never quite understood the development of "consumer" technology beyond the human ability to benefit from it. What could they possibly put in these speakers to separate them from speakers that are $10K and that even the most discerning audiophile could not distinguish?
'because we can' has a big part in it. materials, construction, design...as to whether or not they're worth the expense is up to the consumer. there are so many variables in design and performance.
I think there's a personal sauna in those large cabinets too
@northernbassist @tgraph52 for that price, it would have to be for a pretty rare single malt...
a friend, our guitar player, named Laird MacMillan, was buying scotches from some pretty exclusive Scottish sources with labels printed in pencil... when put in the casks, what type of cask, how long, etc etc...I don't even know what details would be important. I was never a drinker and never even asked to try it. I think it might have been on the spendy side.
@hallmarc @tgraph52
woof. i haven't had a drink in 35 years...when i do intentionally go off the wagon, it will be with a glass of the most aged The Macallan i can find.
