Funnily enough i sometimes get the impression that quite a few here think a sum such as this would be chump change. Not that my opinion is relevant but in my tiny mind i would consider that anyone who would spend over 27k on a paint job for their speakers would be just plain silly. I could see maybe 7k - 8k for a really fab paint job, but 27k is looney tunes territory.
$27,500 for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat???
$27,500 is a nice chunk of change, even in the audiophile world. I think we can all agree on this. You can get a pretty kick ass system for that amount. I think we can all agree on this, too. I just read something at stereophile.com that almost...almost made me choke on my triscuit. Luckily for me, I had water ready to go, knowing how dry those things are. $27,500 is the price for a paint upgrade, a color called cranberry pearl finish on a pair of speakers made by Wilson, the Chronosonic XVX. Now, when we hear the name Wilson, we all know what that means. But come on man, $27,500 for a paint upgrade.
