A star is born.... Stereophile review of the Vimberg Mino

Lets address some of these issues:

D2girls the Vimberg line is an exact clone of Tidal designed by Tidal, the intent is to dramatically make the loudspeakers more affordable for people so they exposuse the same design methodology, use similar parts and have similar attributes. Vimberg is designed to offer about 80% of the performance of the more expensive models. 

The Tidal Akiva is $215k the Vimberg version of the same loudspeaker is $45k.

Also D2 Girls we can get JBL perhaps not everyone wants a gigantically wide, industrial looking 1950's monolith, in their Living Room, also not everyone enjoys the extremely wide yet unfocused sound stage that these types of loudspeakers do, if we did we would pick Avante Garde that makes the best horn loudspeakers in our opinion.

Lalik so is a pair of $325k Wilson Chronosonics a better deal

Is a Buggatli Veyron at $2.2 Million a better deal than a new Corvette at $60-100K.

There will always be asspirational products that represent the ultimate in performance.

We ran a test T + A R 2500 vs the Krell K300i the more expensive piece was better it is always the buyers job to figure out for themselves how good they want whatever they are buying and if the more expensive piece is worth the improvemets for the price.

You can buy a Timex or a Rolex if accuracy and price are important buy a Timex if you crave craftsmenship and love the look and feel of a high end watch you buy one for those reasons.
