Affordable vs. ultra expensive speakers - what's the difference?


Candidate 1: Affordable at about 3K

 

Candidate 2: Ultra expensive at 50K.

 

So what's the difference?

spot on. Why anything op? You are not gonna put a ford escort engine in a Porsche. When you get better components you tend to do them across the board. Top end speakers tend to adorn top end electronics. Anyone with an iota of common sense (maybe I’m getting old) is well aware or room acoustics/ interaction and matching speakers to a room. But when space is optimised you create the conditions to maximise component performance. Think of comparing a road car on an f1 track and and f1 car on a public road 😉
