Give me two identical room...

In one non treated and without acoustical mechanical control i will put the 50,000 bucks dac...

In the other room i will create an acoustical control  for  the same  system but with 5,000 bucks dac well chosen ...

 Guess which one will sound extraordinary ? 

 

Investing in gear piece without understanding acoustics is useless ...

 

LOL, if it makes you happy, and you can still afford groceries, go for it!! 

$50k for something is nothing in the scheme of things. I have a new car that far surpasses $50k and it’s worth every cent. I also have what I want in an audio system that cost a lot. 
A decent car these days will cost you a lot more than $50k. A new Boxster is over $100k, GT3, double that. A genesis gv70 or 80 is $75k and more.

As for room treatments, all the people I know that has 6 digit sound systems have a fully treated room which easily costs 5 digits. Nobody should spend 5 digits on an audio system without 1st treating their room 

What is the % of Americans who can afford this  "nevermind the money" i will buy the best system in the world , a 50,000 bucks dac included , and a 6 figure room treatment ?

What is the % of people in the world reading this as  the "solution" to audio,( 6 figure sound system+6 figure room treatment)  will appreciate this as a Solution or instead will judge this  complete unconsciousness about concrete situation of most people in the world about audio ?

It is incredible how privileged people spoke :

$50k for something is nothing in the scheme of things. I have a new car that far surpasses $50k and it’s worth every cent. I also have what I want in an audio system that cost a lot. 

Congratulation" for your system and especially your car ,  it was very informative ...

My system is 1000 bucks and my room acoustical control is homemade ...

I can teach you how to do one at no cost...

Not so good as yours but for the price you will be surprised ...
